The Riley Greene Bomb

Odds: +500
Book: ESPN Bet
Analysis: Greene has a 66.67% hit rate for home runs against the Cardinals in 2024 and is coming off a strong stretch with a .329 batting average on the road. Cardinals pitching has been vulnerable to left-handed power hitters, making Greene a solid pick.

Odds: +600
Book: DraftKings
Analysis: Crow-Armstrong has been heating up, hitting .305 on the road with a 26.09% home run hit rate in away games this season. He also has a strong history against the Marlins, with a .667 slugging percentage in 2024 matchups.
The Elly De La Cruz (Cincinnati Reds)

Odds: +525
Book: ESPN Bet
Analysis: De La Cruz has a 12.5% barrel rate and has hit three home runs in his last nine games. Facing Pirates pitching, which has struggled against left-handed hitters, De La Cruz is in a favorable spot to go deep.

Pete Crow-Armstrong: ⭐⭐⭐ (Decent value but inconsistent season-long performance).
Riley Greene: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (Strong pick with excellent historical performance vs. opponent).
