[jjgold]

Shohei Ohtani +300
Joey Gallo +450
Pete Alonso +500
Matt Olson +600
Salvador Perez +800
Juan Soto +800
Trevor Story+900
Trey Mancini +1200

I have only heard of 4 guys

[slayer14]

Alonso should be good

[stake1]

Any left handed hitter

[Bostongambler]

Soto + 800 for a flyer

[INVEGA MAN]

Ohtani is the man

[jjgold]

Pete Alonso +500 sleeper

[KiDBaZkiT]

Story +900 is free fukking $

[pavyracer]

I'd go with Mancini for +1200. He won the Euro with Italy now he gets to win the HR derby. He is on a roll!

[Chi_archie]

they should have an "old timers" former winners derby

see Vlad sr, Hamilton, prince fielder, griffey, Frank Thomas, David Ortiz, Barry Bonds ect compete would be more interesting

[Jayvegas420]

mods please merge this thread with the official 2021 Home Run Derby thread

thanks in advance

I would LOVE to bet him. He's a true comeback story after a season off and a good guy from all that I've read..Somehow just can't see it
Has the longest shot EVER won the HR derby? There's always a first of course and it would make a story for the ages should he win it!

Sosa would come out with a corked bat.
I can see it now.
Hamilton would be stoned to the beejesus... Junior with his cap on backwards...

Bigmac with a needle still stuck in his ass and Bonds would swaddle out there trying to keep his massive head from tipping over.

Joey Gallo

….also, as absurd as it sounds, I think the longest HR will go at least 530’. I’ve seen a few lines out there in the 515’-519’ range, and I think those are too low. I got over 509.5’ last night on BetOnline, but they don’t have a line up anymore the last time I checked.

could be interesting

I think balls go about 6-7% further in coors

Longest in statcast history is Aaron Judge at 513

but i'm not sure anyone there has his raw power

[Zlaniner]

San Juan Soto

[Bcatswin]

No play.

[Chi_archie]

they should do a real real old old timers HR derby too.

get the 65 and up crowd out there and see who can hit a dinger and how breaks their hip


if this 75 year old no power in his prime guy could hit a dinger 30 years ago. I'm sure the current senior citizen former MLB players could hit some bombs now.

[Kermit]

I got $50 on Ohtani at +350 and $35 on Gallo at +450

[Chi_archie]

Reggie Jackson is 75

Here ya go...

[LongBall52]

No play.

Yeah, I could watch it , but more fun if even a small play.

[LongBall52]

Did Mickey Mantle win the contest more than once... Can we rank those that won multiple times.. I remember Hank Aaron winning whenI was a kid at least twice..

[LongBall52]

I gave my Mantle baseball to my grandson when he turned 15 and told him..Nobody hit more homeruns as a switch-hitter... Am I still right?

[stake1]

Olson

[pimike]

Olson

That’s my pick

[KnuckleHeadz]

The weather forecast is favoring this over as well. Temperature in the 90’s and wind blowing out around 10mph. The humidor won’t be used which will benefit the distance of the balls traveled.
The longest homerun derby homerun since 2016 was Aaron Judge 513feet

I wanted to take Gallo but those fat fukks always wear down after the first round or 2

My local had Othani at +200 early this morning and he’s now at +140

Absurd. Who the hell would bet at those odds. Go calculate the hold percentage with all of the offerings and then tell him he's trying to steal.

Fanduel offering Ohtani +350.

[Smoke]

I got $50 on Ohtani at +350 and $35 on Gallo at +450

omg me too

I used to work for an independent book in Boston when I was in college.
The boss of the office was old time old school. with the cigar dangling out of his mouth and everything.

He was sharp as hell but cranky.
Back in the day when off shore was just starting up and the local was still the only way to go still he used to tell his customers when they would balk at one of his lines when they said, "well I can get +300 off shore" he used to say "then bet it off shore ya fuk" (or something to that effect)
