Mon May 19 04:50:00 UTC 2025: **Dodgers’ Ohtani Leads Home Run Race; Model Predicts Top HR Prop Bets for Saturday’s MLB Slate**
Los Angeles, CA – Shohei Ohtani of the Los Angeles Dodgers is currently leading the majors with 16 home runs, continuing his power surge with four homers in his last three games. As the Dodgers prepare to face the Angels, Ohtani is listed at +190 to hit a home run. Teammates Andy Pages (+475) and Freddie Freeman (+450) also pose a threat.
SportsLine’s computer model, known for its accuracy, has identified several other players with strong home run potential. The model simulates each game 10,000 times and is currently 10-5 on top-rated MLB moneyline picks.
The model highlights these three selections for potential home runs today:
* **Cedric Mullins, Baltimore Orioles (+420 at FanDuel):** Mullins faces Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Kyle Gibson, who has allowed seven homers in just three starts this season. Left-handed batters have been particularly strong against him, batting .480 with four homers.
* **Ketel Marte, Arizona Diamondbacks (+310 at FanDuel):** Marte, despite missing a month due to injury, has five home runs since his return on May 2. He has a .910 OPS against Rockies starting pitcher German Marquez, who has an 8.27 ERA.
* **Zach Neto, Los Angeles Angels (+450 at FanDuel):** Neto, with six homers in 24 games, faces Dodgers’ veteran Clayton Kershaw, making his first start of the season. Neto batted .360 against left-handed pitchers last year.
A parlay of these three picks has odds of +11626 at FanDuel, potentially paying out $581.30 on a $5 bet.
