I'm eying a few matchups on today's early MLB slate. There are some hitters with insane matchups tonight. I'm ready to attack.

May 19 Best MLB Home Run Props
Kyle Tucker to Hit a Home Run (+320) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
Ultimately, Kyle Tucker has been the only consistent left-handed hitter against righties in the Astros' lineup this year.
He's smacked a .297 ISO and wOBA of .433 against his first 125 righties. He's also struck out only 14.4% of the time against righties while hitting 43.4% of fly balls, 30.1% of line drives, and 60.2% of hard contact.
Tucker rarely hits ground balls and has also hit a 13.3% barrel percentage against righties this season.
He'll face Colin Rea of the Brewers, who has already allowed a .222 ISO and wOBA of .361 to his first 108 lefties. In addition, Rea has earned just 15.7% of strikeouts against lefties and has allowed 29.3% of line drives.
Let's hope Tucker hits a line drive blast over the wall today.
William Contreras to Hit a Home Run (+480) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
Let's say in the same game. William Contreras has slugged a .201 ISO and wOBA of .437 against his first 165 righties this season.
The right-handed catcher has also struck out only 17% of the time and has hit 61.2% of hard contact with a 12.1% barrel percentage against righties.
On the other hand, he'll face Houston rookie Spencer Arrighetti, who has been way worse against righties despite being a right-handed pitcher. Arrighetti has allowed a .277 ISO and wOBA of .481, with just 31.4% of ground balls and 37.1% of line drives allowed to righties.
Contreras has plenty of potential today.
Yasmani Grandal to Hit a Home Run (+900) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS
To start the season, Yasmani Grandal has hit a .304 ISO and wOBA of .315 against his first 23 righties. The switch-hitter has ultimately destroyed right-handed pitching to begin the year, slugging 33.3% of fly balls in those 23 plate appearances.
Grandal will face Jameson Taillon of the Cubs, who has already allowed a .255 ISO and wOBA of .392 to his first 54 lefties. Taillon has given up 26.3% of fly balls to lefties and has only produced 16.7% of strikeouts against them.
Grandal at +900 is too good to pass up.
