MLB Betting 8/23/23 - HR Predictor

Welcome in to a new article for 2023...the HR Predictor! This will be a daily article, where I use my own research to highlight a few names I think are in a great position to hit a homerun on each days slate! These are low unit bets -- between 0.1 and 0.3 units -- with typically high-odds and we will only need to hit one or two a week to make some money!

UPDATED HR RECORD: 24-73 +$540.00

Mookie Betts +285 (0.2u)

It's not often that I would write-up a HR call under 3/1 odds, but I love the spot for Mookie tonight. He's fresh off a huge game last night in Cleveland, and has just as good of a match-up against Xzavion Curry. Curry profiles as reverse-splits -- allowing a monster .232 ISO against right-handed hitters this season. Despite batting from the right-side -- Mookie has some of the best power numbers on the Dodgers against RHP. He matches up very well with Curry's pitch mix, and leads the team in barrel-rate over the last 14 days. For me to like a player at these odds, I need to love the spot and that's exactly the case on Wednesday night.
