Kerry Carpenter (+440)

Kerry Carpenter is only hitting .184 so far, but he’s already clubbed two home runs. That’s after going deep a career-high 26 times last season.

The slugger has smacked a homer twice in his last five contests. The Tigers take on a Marlins team sending Chris Paddack to the hill tonight.

Paddack has had a shaky start to the campaign. He’s already allowed two home runs in just 8 1/3 innings of work while posting an 8.31 ERA.

Opponents have a .475 xSLG against him, and Carpenter has already taken him deep, going 3-for-5 with a bomb.

Josh Bell (+490)

Josh Bell is thriving early in his first season with the Twins.

The slugger is batting .317 with three home runs and 10 RBI, and he just went deep on Thursday evening against the Tigers, finishing the game 3-for-4.

Bell is up against a familiar arm tonight in Patrick Corbin, who won’t be happy to see Bell in the batter’s box. 

The veteran is 4-for-16 lifetime versus Corbin with three bombs. He’s already smacked one homer this season off a left-handed hurler, and Corbin allowed 21 home runs last season.
