Best Home Run Props Today
Gunnar Henderson Home Run Bet (+394)
Gunnar Henderson hasn’t joined the September home run party yet, but Tuesday gives him a pretty nice invitation. He’s already taken Tanner Bibee deep while going 4-for-12 against him, and 14 of Henderson’s 22 bombs have come against righties. Bibee has been especially generous to lefties, serving up 20 of his 26 homers to them.
Heriberto Hernandez Home Run Bet (+361)
Hernandez has been flexing some serious power this season, and September hasn’t cooled him off. He’s already launched two bombs this month and now gets Sean Manaea, who’s served up eight homers over his last five starts. Sixteen of Manaea’s 21 homers allowed have come against righties, while Hernandez has crushed 10 against lefties.
Austin Riley Home Run Bet (+474)
Riley’s boom stick is officially out of hibernation, and Tuesday brings a pitcher he knows well. Riley is 6-for-19 with two homers against Freddy Peralta, with 14 of his 16 bombs this season coming against righties. Peralta has surrendered 23 homers, including 15 on the road. The history is there and Riley’s power is waking up.
