Best Home Run Props Today
Brandon Lowe Home Run Bet (+396)
Friday's postponement pushed this matchup to Saturday, but Brandon Lowe remains one of my favorite home run props. After a quiet July, he gets another crack at Gavin Williams, who has already allowed 17 home runs this season, including 10 to left-handed hitters. Lowe has crushed 17 of his 21 homers against righties and has already taken Williams deep once before. This matchup still sets up perfectly for Lowe to leave the yard.

Michael Harris II Home Run Bet (+519)
Harris II wasted no time heating up after the All-Star break, and I'm betting he stays hot Saturday. After lacing two doubles Friday night, Harris gets another shot at MacKenzie Gore—a pitcher he's already taken deep twice. Gore's 57.3% fly-ball rate is a recipe for trouble, especially against a hitter with Harris' elite 51% hard-hit rate.
Tyler Soderstrom Home Run Bet (+315)
The lefty slugger draws Zack Littell, who's been one of baseball's biggest home run magnets, serving up 23 long balls this season, including 17 to left-handed hitters. Soderstrom has done most of his damage against righties with eight of his 14 homers, and his 44.8% hard-hit rate makes this one of the day's strongest home run props.
