Today’s best MLB Home Run Prop Bets
#5: Fernando Tatis Jr. +525
One of the San Diego Padres’ most influential players, Fernando Tatis Jr. is struggling at the plate this year. Surprisingly, the outfielder is still waiting for his first home run of the season.
We could see Tatis finally open his account for the season against J.T. Ginn and the Athletics on Saturday.
#4: Bobby Witt Jr. +450
Bobby Witt Jr. is enjoying another productive season at the plate. The shortstop is batting .294 with 7 home runs and 23 RBIs, and we could see him imrpove his numbers against George Kirby and the Seattle Mariners.
#3: Ketel Marte +390
With three All-Star selections and two Silver Slugger awards to his name, Ketel Marte is one of the Arizona Diamondbacks’ most influential players.
It may be worth backing Marte to add to his home run tally as the D-backs face off against the Michael Lorenzen and the Colorado Rockies at Chase Field.
#2: Bryce Harper +300
Coming off an underwhelming 2025 season, Bryce Harper appears to be back to his best. The two-time NL MVP award winner has 12 home runs and 31 RBIs to his name.
#1: Shoei Ohtani +280
It is no surprise to see reigning NL MVP Shohei Ohtani top this list. Despite taking his time to hit his first home run of the season, Ohtani now has eight home runs and 23 RBIs to his name.
He will be fancying his chances of adding to his tally as the Dodgers face off against Robert Gasser and the Milwaukee Brewers on the road on Saturday.
