After cashing Riley Greene (+500) to go deep on Monday, SBR's Gabe Henderson looks to hit another big one with his best home run predictions for Tuesday, August 19th:
Juan Soto to hit a home run (+325 via bet365)
Dylan Carlson to hit a home run (+1100 via DraftKings)
Freddie Freeman to hit a home run (+340 via FanDuel)
Jose Ramirez to hit a home run (+525 via bet365)
Parlay odds: +100004 via FanDuel ($10 to win $10,000.40)
Best Bet: Freddie Freeman (Dodgers) to hit a home run (+340 FanDuel)
"If recent trends tell us anything, it's that Austin Gomber is certain to allow a home run on Dinger Tuesday. Colorado's starter has given up 14 moon shots across his last 10 starts, with opponents hitting homers at a 90% clip over that span. He's in the midst of a horrible stretch that's seen him surrender moon shots in every start since July, and two in all three August outings.
As such, it's simply a matter of picking the right player to take him deep. While Shohei Ohtani (+115) is an oft-appealing option, I'm opting to back Freeman. The nine-time All-Star owns a career slash line of .375/.412/.813 against the Rockies starter, which includes two home runs in 16 at-bats.
Bet this at FanDuel, which is the only one of the sports betting apps offering Freeman at a price longer than +300. The first baseman's odds imply a 22.73% probability he hits a second round-tripper in his previous three outings."
