Welcome back, RotoBallers! I've got y'all back-to-back today! I was able to nail the +700 on Coby Mayo yesterday; unfortunately, Konnor Griffin didn't play, so we will never know if it was the right play against Colin Rea. On to today, though, as we have a loaded slate that features all 30 teams in play. Let's find those homer spots, shall we!
In this article, I'll focus on four home run spots that I love for the upcoming slate of MLB games. Make sure to check out the RotoBaller Discord, where you can find input from all our experts, which could include more home run spots as well as some great strikeout picks.

MLB Prop Bets - Today's Home Run Prop Picks (5/29/2026)
Ben Rice OVER 0.5 Home Runs (+328 DraftKings)
I'm going to start us off with a lower-odds option for the slate. Ben Rice has been dominating this season and has even gotten some MVP looks already. He has been demolishing RHP this season and now faces Luis Severino at HOME. That lines us up perfectly, as Severino has been terrible at home this season, and it's where most of his home run issues come from. He has given up six of his eight home runs at home, which has him at 2.2 HR/9.
The lefties have been a problem for Severino as well; they are sporting a .452 SLG, .167 ISO, 13.2% Barrel%, and a 40.7% HardHit%. That being said, Severino is going to have his hands full with the Yankees likely trotting out six lefties plus Aaron Judge. I'm going with Rice, though, he leads the team in SLG and ISO at .630 and .339. He's only behind Judge in Barrel% and HardHit% at 21.6% and 54.6%.
Rice is up to 11 home runs on the season against righties, and with some great weather at a smaller ballpark. I will gladly take him while he is still over +300.
Pete Crow-Armstrong OVER 0.5 Home Runs (+525 Bet365)
I'm going to get a little risky here. PCA hasn't been a big home run hitter, but I like what I have seen from him in the last week of play. He has been hitting righties extremely well. He leads the team in average exit velocity across the last six games at 99.5 mph. He has had three batted balls below 95 mph in that time frame. He has been making extremely good contact with the ball.
If you are looking to play it a bit safer, then I recommend Ian Happ, who has crushed righties all season long. PCA has four home runs against RHP this season and is going against Kyle Leahy, who has struggled heavily against lefties this season. He has given up six of his eight home runs to lefties, and they are sporting a .554 SLG, .218 ISO, 17% Barrel%, and a 58.4% HardHit%.
PCA leads the team in HardHit% against RHP at 51% this season. He is also sporting a solid 13% Barrel%. He will likely be batting leadoff, so we should see a few ABs against Leahy before they go to the bullpen, which has been the 11th-worst in the league. As I said, it's a bit risky going here with PCA, but with how hard he has been hitting the ball, this consistency is very good to see.
