MLB Home Run Player Prop Bets Today: Best Hitter HR Props (5/11/2025)

I think there were around 1,000 home runs hit yesterday, and somehow none of them were from the six players I had selected for yesterday. Variance strikes again! It's a good reminder that HR props are not all that easy to hit, but it's certainly not going to stop us from trying! On this page, […]
