The 2026 MLB regular season comes to its conclusion on Sunday, so we've got one more chance to bet a full 15-game slate with my home run predictions today. Saturday's 0-3 outing settled as a third straight losing day.  

My MLB home run picks for today's slate include star hitters like Elly De La Cruz. The Reds' shortstop faces Max Scherzer today, who is allowing a ton of contact at the plate, while giving up 11 earned runs in his previous 3 starts for the Blue Jays.

Home run pick: Christian Walker (+400)

The Astros are in a dogfight with the Rangers for the final playoff seed in the American League, so Walker should continue his plate production in a plus matchup today. He's hit 3 home runs in his past 5 contests.

 The Astros' 1B has hit 18 of 28 home runs in away ballparks this year, including 2 at Sutter Health Park in this series. Winds will be blowing out at 6.6 mph at Sutter Health Park today.

This is already a hitter-friendly ballpark, so Walker's set up for his third home run of the series as a right-handed hitter against a struggling lefty.

Go to bet365 to bet on Walker's home run prop at +400 odds.

Home run pick: Munetaka Murakami (+375)

The White Sox have clinched a playoff berth, but Murakami continues to punish baseballs. The Japanese slugger has recorded 3 home runs in his previous 5 appearances.

Freeland has given up 6 home runs in his last 4 starts for the Rockies. This creates a great opportunity for Murakami in his final regular-season start at Rate Field.

Winds will be blowing into right field at 7.6 mph today. Murakami has hit 7 home runs against left-handed pitching in 166 plate appearances, while logging 20 of 35 home runs at Rate Field. 

Go to DraftKings for the best number on Murakami's home run prop at +375 odds.
