Today’s Best MLB Home Run Prop Bets: Top 5 picks including Aaron Judge, Marcell Ozuna and more on April 28, 2025
5. Aaron Judge – New York Yankees (+175)
Aaron Judge is having an MVP-quality season, currently leading MLB with a remarkable .406 batting average. He has reached base in 24 straight games and snapped a nine-game homerless streak last night with a go-ahead home run against the Blue Jays. Confronting Orioles' Tomoyuki Sugano (2-1, 3.54 ERA) at Camden Yards, a ballpark where right-handed power hitters get rewarded, Judge is well-positioned to add to his home run tally.
4. Mark Vientos – New York Mets (+400)
Mark Vientos ended his season-opening homer drought with a 338-foot homer off the Cardinals, teeing up for a potential breakout. Though he's been slow to get going this season, his rising exit velocities demonstrate he's set to blow up. Confronting the Nationals' Trevor Williams (1-2, 5.11 ERA), Vientos is a high-upside bet for homers.
3. Marcell Ozuna – Atlanta Braves (+320)
Marcell Ozuna has been a threat for home runs all season, with a .316 batting average and 1.030 OPS. At Coors Field, where bats come alive, Marcell Ozuna's chances of launching a home run are amplified against Rockies' right-hander Ryan Feltner (0-1, 3.86 ERA). With the ballpark notorious for boosting power numbers, Ozuna is a strong candidate to go deep.
2. Austin Riley – Atlanta Braves (+390)
Austin Riley hitting at an average of .286 with six homers supports Ozuna in the Braves' attack. Benefiting also from the Coors Field hitter-friendliness facing Rockies' righty Ryan Feltner (0-1, 3.86 ERA), Riley's talent at producing homers make him a valuable pick for a home run prop bet.
1. Freddie Freeman – Los Angeles Dodgers (+550)
Freddie Freeman is hitting .283 with a .920 OPS, demonstrating his continued offensive prowess. Facing the Marlins' Edward Cabrera (0-1, 6.14 ERA), Freeman's self-control and strength make him a safe bet to hit a home run, particularly at +550 positive odds.
