Carlos Correa has not yet hit a home run since coming off the injured list, but it's only been three games. He could easily break out quickly, and the Minnesota Twins star has a good matchup with Joey Cantillo (2-3, 4.99 ERA) of the Cleveland Guardians.

After breaking out of his 16-game slump, Aaron Judge hit two home runs in three games to reach 53 for the season. The New York Yankees slugger has been held in the park in the last two, so he's due. He faces Seattle Mariners' Logan Gilbert (7-11, 3.24 ERA) tonight.


2) Yordan Alvarez: +270

Yordan Alvarez has two home runs in his last seven games and 34 for the season. Quietly, he's putting up a career year and is approaching his career high for home runs. Today, the Houston Astros slugger gets to take on Jose Suarez (1-2, 6.80 ERA) and the Los Angeles Angels in that same good matchup as Tucker.


1) Matt Olson: +165

Matt Olson has the best odds of hitting a home run today. The Atlanta Braves star has one, his only from this month, in the last six games played, and he has 26 for the season. That's far off his season total from 2023, but today he is facing Julian Aguiar (2-0, 4.88 ERA) and the Cincinnati Reds, so he has a good matchup.
