Best MLB Home Run Bets: Lock In This Expert's Best MLB Player Prop Bets for Sunday

After looking through today's 15-game slate, there are some home run props that I'm ready to attack.

Below, I'll talk about my favorite three matchups for potential dingers today.

August 25 Best MLB Home Run Props

Elly De La Cruz to Hit a Home Run (+420) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS

Elly De La Cruz has smashed a .270 ISO and wOBA of .405 against his last 82 righties. He's also added 35.8% of line drives with 60.4% of hard contact against those last 82 righties.

Beyond that, he's launched an 18.9% barrel percentage against righties.

He'll take on Luis L. Ortiz of the Pirates today. Ortiz is a right-handed pitcher, who has allowed a .467 ISO and wOBA of .428 to his last 67 lefties. He's also allowed 43.1% of fly balls to lefties in that time and has given up 58.8% of hard contact with below 15% of strikeouts against lefties.

Let's rock with De La Cruz to hit one out.

Daulton Varsho to Hit a Home Run (+450) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS

I rarely ride with a lefty-vs-lefty matchup. But here we are.

Daulton Varsho is set to take on Tyler Anderson in today's ball game between the Blue Jays and Angels.

Varsho has already hit an ISO of .450 with a wOBA of .629 against his last 22 lefties. He's also struck out just 9.1% of the time and has hit 38.9% of fly balls against lefties.

Meanwhile, Tyler Anderson has allowed a .333 ISO and wOBA of .563 to his last 28 lefties. Anderson has only struck out 7.1% of lefties over the previous month and has allowed 54.5% of hard contact along. He's also earned just 8.2% of swinging strikes to lefties over the last month.

Take a chance with Varsho.

Ian Happ to Hit a Home Run (+420) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS

In the last 30 days, Ian Happ has hit a .234 ISO and wOBA of .335 against righties. He's also smashed 49% of fly balls with 59.2% of hard contact and a 16.3% barrel percentage.

He's been destroying as a left-handed hitter over the last month.

Today, he'll face Adam Oller of the Marlins. Oller has allowed a .500 ISO and wOBA of .437 to his first 16 lefties faced this year. He's also watched those 16 lefties hit 72.7% of hard contact with 63.6% of fly balls.

In addition, Oller has struck out just 6.2% of lefties this season and has produced only 4.5% of swinging strikes.

It's a super small sample size. However, Oller gives up many fly balls, and Happ hits many. A fly ball could get over the fence if Happ makes hard contact with the barrel.
