Top 5 MLB Home Run Prop Leaders - July 27
Corey Seager +370
Although Corey Seager's .272 2024 batting average is a far cry from the .327 figure that he posted last season, the Texas Rangers shortstop has been mashing since the All-Star break.

In the seven games since the resumption of play, Seager is hitting .320/.414/.480. After being held off base in Friday night's loss to Toronto, Seager will hope to get things going again on Saturday.
Bryce Harper +330
The 23 home runs hit by Bryce Harper this season ties him for ninth most in MLB. Although the Philadelphia Phillies' first baseman has hit a mere .211 over the past fortnight, he has still managed to hit three home runs, seven RBIs, as well as a pair of doubles over that period.
Aaron Judge +200
On Friday night, Aaron Judge clobbered his MLB-leading 36th home run of the season against the Boston Red Sox. Despite hitting a mere .234 career against his divisional foes, the New York Yankees captain has 25 home runs and 74 RBIs in 98 career games against Boston. Judge also now leads all of MLB in slugging percentage, on-base percentage, and OPS.

Jose Altuve +370
The Houston Astros are tied with the San Diego Padres for the highest batting average in MLB, and second baseman Jose Altuve has played his part in that. A .307 hitter on the season, the former AL MVP has gone 8-for-24 since the end of the All-Star break.

Moreover, the 14 home runs dinged by the Venezuelan puts him on course to best the career-low figure of 17 that he registered in 2023.
Bobby Witt Jr. +400
A .465 hitter since June 25, nobody in MLB has a higher average than Bobby Witt Jr. over the past month. The Kansas City Royals shortstop is a huge reason why his club remains in the postseason race, as the 24-year-old has hit .343/.389/.589 with 18 home runs and 70 RBIs on the season.
