There’s nothing better in baseball than the home run, and nobody is hitting them more than Vladimir Guerrero and Adolis Garcia this season.

Both players have 16 home runs as we near the end of May, but which Major League Baseball player will lead the league in homers during the month of June? WynnBET has a special player prop for the league’s home run leader next month, and there are some interesting names to consider. 

Garcia comes in at +5000 odds despite his hot start, while Guerrero has the third-best odds of any player at +800. Yordan Alvarez (+600) and Ronald Acuna Jr. (+750) are the two favorites to lead the way. 

AL MVP frontrunner Shohei Ohtani clocks in at +1200 odds, but which one of these guys is the best bet? 

There are a ton of options, but I think Acuna Jr. may be the guy to roll with. He’s second in the majors with 15 bombs, and he plays in a solid lineup where it is hard to pitch around him in Atlanta. 

Acuna has also been getting hot towards the end of the month, as he’s homered in three of his last six games. The tricky thing about these player props is you need to hope that the player you pick doesn’t get injured. Ohtani’s injury history scares me away a even with his +1200 odds, but Acuna has been relatively healthy throughout his career. He played in 156 games in 2019 and 46 during last year’s 60 game season. 

Another dark horse that I like in this prop is Oakland A’s first baseman Matt Olson. Olson has 13 homers on the season and has homered twice in his last four games. At +10000 odds, the lefty slugger could make for a solid pick if he continues to stay hot. 

If you aren’t feeling anyone on WynnBET’s list, you can also take the field +300 for someone else to hit the most homers in June.
