August 29 Best MLB Home Run Props

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

William Contreras has been on point over the last month. Therefore, we'll keep riding him.

Contreras has slugged a .338 ISO and wOBA of .418 against his last 83 righties. He's also struck out below 17% of the time over the last 30 days against righties.

In the afternoon, he'll battle Hayden Birdsong of the Giants. Birdsong has struggled against righties as a right-handed pitcher. He's allowed a .292 ISO and wOBA of .374 to 82 righties this season.

In the last month, he's also given up a .296 ISO and wOBA of .421 to his last 31 righties. It's an ongoing theme.

Meanwhile, Contreras has hit 56.1% of hard contact and a 14% barrel percentage. It has a very good chance of launching another bomb today.

Michael Toglia to Hit a Home Run (+340) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS

Michael Toglia keeps on having good matchups against the Marlins.

We've already played him twice over the last couple of days and he's missed on both. I'll give him one more try.

I'd have FOMO if I didn't.

Toglia has hit a .236 ISO and wOBA of .368 over the last 30 days against righties. He's also launched 42.4% of fly balls and 30.3% of line drives with a 51.5% hard contact rate and an 18.2% barrel percentage.

These are elite numbers and, ultimately, numbers we look for when picking home-run candidates.

Meanwhile. he'll take on Valente Bellozo of the Marlins, who has allowed 51.4% of hard contact to lefties over the last month. He's also given up 34.3% of fly balls and has induced just 20% of ground balls against lefties.

If Toglia can get ahold of one in Coors Field, he'll take it the distance. Let's give him one more shot.

Addison Barger to Hit a Home Run (+750) CLICK HERE TO SEE WHICH SPORTSBOOK HAS THE BEST ODDS

Addison Barger and the Toronto Blue Jays will face Kutter Crawford of the Red Sox. Crawford is a righty pitcher who has struggled immensely against lefties over the last 30 days.
