Home Run Prop Prediction 1: Christian Yelich (+520)
Cardinals starter Jack Flaherty had seven walks during his first start so he has to be more dialed in tonight throwing more strikes.
Christian Yelich has had some success against Flaherty in his career going 9-29 with two home runs. Let's be honest, Yelich isn't the hitter he once was, but he did have three home runs and 12 RBIs last April.
Last season he hit nine of his 14 home runs at home as well. Over Flaherty's career he's allowed a home run every 7-8 innings so he's due to allow at least one in tonight's game against the Brewers.
Get Yelich to hit a home run at +520 with other Brewers hitters to consider include William Contreras (+430) and Rowdy Tellez (+320).
Home Run Prop Prediction 2: Mike Trout (+240)
Mike Trout has a hit in five straight and tonight he and the Angels get Chris Bassitt taking the mound for Toronto who had less than a stellar first start of the season.
He was rocked for nine earned runs including four home runs in 3.2 innings pitched. Trout has solid splits against Bassitt going 7-17 in his career against him with one home run.
Last season Trout was a .330 hitter at home compared to .243 on the road and was also a better hitter in night games.
Trout had five home runs last April and another home run tonight would help him keep that pace this April. Get Trout at +240 with other Angel hitters to consider include Taylor Ward (+420) and Shohei Ohtani (+280).
