Jorge Soler has only hit 21 home runs this season for the San Francisco Giants and Atlanta Braves, but he crushed one yesterday and could be heating up. Soler could easily go on a power surge, and today he faces Darren McCaughan (0-0, 7.64 ERA) and the Miami Marlins.


2) Matt Olson: +245

Braves first baseman Matt Olson has also had a bit of a down year with home runs. He hit 54 last year but has just 29 so far. One of those came yesterday, so he could be rounding into form. He also gets a positive matchup with McCaughan and the Marlins, so pick him today.


1) Juan Soto: +200

Pick Juan Soto to hit a home run (Imagn)
Pick Juan Soto to hit a home run (Imagn)

Juan Soto has 40 home runs. He is one of four players to be at or above that mark this season. The New York Yankees slugger has only three in September, though, so he could be due for a power surge. It could begin today against Joey Estes (7-8, 4.78 ERA) and the Oakland Athletics.
