Daily Dinger: Best Home Run Prop Bet Picks Today (Month of Schwarber Continues)
By Reed Wallach
We have two pivotal Championship Series meetings on Saturday night.
The Phillies look to take a commanding 3-1 series lead over the San Diego Padres while the Yankees are backed up against a wall down 0-2 at home against the Astros. Will a postseason hero emerge? We went to the home run prop market to find some potentially team legends that can propel their team to a win with the long ball.
Here is the BetSided team's favorite home run prop bets for Saturday's pair of MLB postseason games:
Best Home Run Picks Today
Giancarlo Stanton (+330) – New York Yankees vs. Houston Astros
Stanton has hit two homers this postseason and hit one in the clinching game against the Guardians. He’s displayed his power before, so let’s trust him to do it again.
Cristian Javier has given up 7 home runs on the road this season. With the short deck in right field, the fly balls that were outs in Houston, will suddenly turn to runs on the board. -- Donnavan Smoot
Kyle Schwarber (+310) - Philadelphia Phillies vs. San Diego Padres
I’m riding the hot hand. Schwarber is feeling it at the plate, evident with his leadoff homer against Joe Musgrove in Game 3, and I think we can see something similar on Saturday against a struggling Mike Clevinger.
Clevinger allowed five earned runs in the Game 1 loss to the Dodgers, including a home run. Now he gets Schwarber, who has two homers in three games and five runs batted in.
Keep it rolling, Schwarber. -- Reed Wallach
