If there was only one betting market available on PRO Report Monday, it would be an absolute crime not to recommend home run predictions.
PRO Projections’ projections over the past few days have been great across the board: On Thursday, our model cashed in home run projections at +1350 (Nolan Chanuel) and +625 (Jazz Chisholm) in consecutive innings of the same game.
On Friday, the prediction was that Yainer Diaz would hit the Green Monster with a big hit in the ninth inning.
Home run projections weren't featured on Saturday because they weren't worth much, and Dalton Varshaw (+750) continued his strong run yesterday.
On Monday, the best home run picks from Data-Driven Insights featured four home run picks for Cardinals vs. Reds and Astros vs. Rays.
