Home Run Picks for Thursday, June 5

Francisco Lindor Anytime Home Run (+240) at Caesars Sportsbook

Lindor is putting up another All-Star season for the Mets and has been flashing his power over the last few games. He’s gone deep four times over his last six games, raising his total for the season to 14. Ten of those have come against right-handed pitching like he’ll face tonight.

The Mets’ shortstop will be facing Dodgers’ starter Landon Knack (3-2, 4.58 ERA, 1.36 WHIP). The 27-year-old has been allowed just two earned runs over his last two starts, but he is still struggling to keep runners off the basepaths. He’s also been vulnerable to the deep ball, allowing six home runs over his last four starts.

Knack got the better of Lindor a couple of weeks ago, but that was before Lindor started heating up. We expect him to have the edge tonight, adding to his fast-rising home run total.

Aaron Judge Anytime Home Run (+160) at Caesars Sportsbook

Judge has been cooling off at the plate lately, but is still delivering strong power numbers. His 21 home runs are the third-most in the league, 14 of which came against righties. He’s faced Guardian’s starter Slade Cecconi (1-1, 5.28 ERA, 1.43 WHIP) just once, and took him deep in his only at-bat.

Speaking of Cecconi, he has not looked good in his first season with the Guardians. In his last start, the 25-year-old allowed the Angels to score five runs over 4 1/3 innings. He surrendered three home runs in that start, raising his total to five over 15 1/3 innings pitched this season.

With the young pitcher showing no signs of improvement, we are happy to back the three-time MVP today.

Cal Raleigh Anytime Home Run (+240) at Caesars Sportsbook

You may not yet know the Mariners’ catcher's name, but he currently leads the AL with 23 home runs. That puts Raleigh on pace to easily surpass his career total, which he set last season. The 28-year-old has seen his home run count go up every season of his five-year career, making us believe his impressive numbers are more than just an early-season fluke.

Raleigh will be facing Zach Eflin (4-2, 4.46 ERA, 1.09 WHIP) to start tonight’s game. The Orioles starter is coming off a seven-inning shutout, but that came against the White Sox. In his two previous starts, he allowed seven home runs over 10 1/3 innings. While his WHIP remains strong, all it will take is one mistake to allow Raleigh to cover this home run prop.
