Figuring out which players are going to hit home runs on an MLB gameday is a tall task, one that sports bettors everywhere are flocking to. There will undoubtedly be quite a few home runs today with all 30 teams in action, and it's your job to determine who those players might be. For August 4, we have the best odds picked out.
Best MLB home run prop bets for August 4
5) Tyler Fitzgerald: +450
Tyler Fitzgerald set a record for home run frequency earlier this season, so the young San Francisco Giants star is a good pick on most days. He already has 10 in just 49 games played, so he's been on a brilliant pace and could add to it today.
4) Juan Soto: +330
Juan Soto, though not likely because of the short porch in right field with the New York Yankees, has a power stroke this season unlike most. He's eight away from his career high already, and he very well could add a 28th to his total today. He hasn't hit one in more than seven games, so he's due.
3) Rhys Hoskins: +290
Rhys Hoskins has historically been a very good power hitter. This year, he already has 19, which is tied for 27th among all hitters. That's a good mark, and with a struggling Mitchell Parker starting for the Washington Nationals, it's a good day for him to add one.
2) Byron Buxton: +265
Byron Buxton has 14 home runs this season. When healthy in the past, he's been a good hitter and has hit a few home runs. With a matchup with 10-loss Chris Flexen (5.13 ERA) on deck, today is a good day to pick the Minnesota Twins star to leave the ballpark.
1) Aaron Judge: +150
Aaron Judge is playing today (barring an unforeseen day off or injury), which means he is probably going to hit a home run. He has gone deep in the first inning of both contests with the Toronto Blue Jays, so why shouldn't the man with a league-leading 41 home runs be the best bet on any given day?
