It’s “Swing-for-the-Fences Saturday,” and three sluggers stand out as my favorite home run bets. Junior Caminero gets a juicy matchup against Tanner Bibee, a pitcher he’s already taken deep and one who’s surrendered 20 home runs this season. Esmerlyn Valdez stays on the list after mashing seven homers in July and now faces Shota Imanaga, who’s struggled to keep right-handed bats in the ballpark. Meanwhile, Julio Rodríguez looks ready to build on his recent home run as he squares off with Nathan Eovaldi, whom he’s already taken deep and owns a .375 career average against.

Best Home Run Props Today
Junior Caminero Home Run Bet (+TBD)
This is a smash spot for one of baseball’s rising sluggers. Caminero has launched 22 of his 29 home runs against right-handed pitching and continues to scorch baseballs with a 51.5% hard-hit rate. Now he gets Tanner Bibee, who’s already been taken deep by Caminero and has allowed 20 home runs this season. After a quiet start coming out of the All-Star break, expect Caminero to leave the yard.

Esmerlyn Valdez Home Run Bet (+271)
He’s been one of baseball’s hottest power hitters in July, launching seven home runs this month, including three since the All-Star break. Now he gets a dream matchup against Shota Imanaga, who’s already served up 22 homers this season, including 15 to right-handed hitters. With a monster 56.3% hard-hit rate, Valdez has all the tools to send another one over the fence.
Julio Rodriguez Home Run Bet (+527)
This is a great spot for Seattle’s star to stay hot. Rodríguez is 9-for-24 against Nathan Eovaldi with a home run and a double, and Eovaldi has been serving up plenty of long balls, allowing five over his last three starts and 22 on the season. After ending his homer drought earlier this week, expect J-Rod to ride that momentum into another blast.
