Best Home Run Prop Bets – MLB Free HR Props Picks
Matt Olson, Atlanta Braves +375
Matt Olson, last year’s home run champion, has a chance to get his season started with a bang. The Braves game was postponed yesterday due to rain, so this is Opening Day for the Braves and the Phillies. Olson hit 54 home runs last season, and 44 of them came off of right-handed pitching. In his career against Wheeler, Olson has two home runs against him. Atlanta has such a deep lineup that pitchers cannot pitch around studs like Olson, so it’s likely he will see pitches to hit throughout the game. The weather in Philly is not the best, but with Olson’s strength and ability to hit home runs, there is value in this number for Olson.
