Best Home Run Picks for Friday, April 22
Hunter Dozier, Kansas City Royals (+610)
Dozier isn’t the top home run hitter on the Royals – that title belongs to Salvador Perez – but he is second on the team in long bombs. Dozier has hit two homers this season and has the third-highest batting average on the team. The Royals are playing the Seattle Mariners, who allow the third-most home runs per game. If Dozier can continue getting his bat on the ball tonight, we will be kissing one goodbye. – Donnavan Smoot
Franmil Reyes, Cleveland Guardians (+500)
Yankees starter Jameson Taillon has always struggled with the long ball, allowing a home run on 12% of fly balls over his career. That number is up to 18% this season and there's nobody like masher Franmil Reyes to take advantage. Reyes went deep on Thursday, but I'll back him to do it again at hitter friendly Yankee Stadium. He has the 11th highest exit velocity in all of baseball, so while he is hitting just .191 I'm going to hope his first dinger on Thursday is the dam breaking and he tags Taillon with one on Friday. – Reed Wallach
Ozzie Albies, Atlanta Braves (+340)
Albies has two important things going for him today in terms of hitting a bomb against the Miami Marlins. The first of which has been Albies hot streak at the plate to start the season. Albies may only be hitting .218, but five of his 12 hits so far this season have been home runs. That is a pretty insane ratio.
The second reason for liking Albies to go deep tonight is Trevor Rodgers. Rodgers gets the start for Miami on Friday sporting an unsightly 12.15 ERA. He hasn’t given up a home run yet in two starts. But, he has given up just about everything else. Rogers lasted just 1 ⅔ inning against the Phillies and allowed five fly balls compared to just one ground ball hit. It’s only a matter of time before those fly balls start sailing over the fence. – Matt De Saro
