Gunnar Henderson Home Run Bet (+340)
Henderson is staring at one of Friday's juiciest home run matchups. Ten of his 16 homers have come against right-handed pitching, and he's already taken Brady Singer deep in their only previous meeting. Singer has been one of baseball's biggest home run donors, surrendering 19 long balls this season, including 13 to lefties. Everything lines up for Gunnar to kick off July with another moonshot.
CJ Abrams Home Run Bet (+398)
Abrams is knocking on the door of a new career high, and Friday is a perfect spot to keep the power surge rolling. Fifteen of his 18 home runs have come against right-handed pitching, and now he gets Mitch Keller, a pitcher he's hitting .438 against with a homer already. Keller has also surrendered seven of his nine long balls to lefties. Everything points to Abrams launching another moonshot.
Shohei Ohtani Home Run Bet (+270)
Ohtani is heating up, and Friday's matchup only adds to the excitement. After crushing eight home runs in June, he gets another shot at Michael King, a pitcher he's already punished with three homers in just 21 career at-bats. King has also struggled to keep left-handed hitters in the yard, allowing six long balls to lefties. Everything points toward another vintage Shohei moonshot.
