HR Prop #1: Fernando Tatis Jr.
Fernando Tatis Jr. and the San Diego Padres reach a pivotal Game 3 against the Chicago Cubs tonight. They will be up against big right-hander Jameson Taillon, who is never an easy arm to face. But, Tatis Jr. has had success against Taillon in the past.
He’s 2-for-6 lifetime with a homer, but none have come at Wrigley Field. After launching 25 home runs this season, Fernando Tatis Jr. is still searching for his first in the Windy City. With San Diego’s season hanging in the balance, he’s due to break that drought especially after closing the regular season with three homers in his final four games.
There is no better time for Tatis Jr. to rise to the occasion, and it may just be in Game 3.
HR Prop #2: Jose Ramirez
Jose Ramirez always steps up to the plate and delivers for the Cleveland Guardians, and I’m eyeing him to do so in Game 3 at Progressive Field against the Detroit Tigers. Jack Flaherty takes the bump for the hosts, and Ramirez is 7-for-27 lifetime against Flaherty with a pair of home runs.
The veteran put up impressive power numbers in the regular season, going yard 30 times while hitting .283. While he only has one hit in this series so far, Ramirez did draw three walks on Wednesday.
He’s swung it very well against the Tigers this season, batting .347 with two homers. Ramirez also has 24 bombs off right-handed pitchers. It wouldn’t surprise me if he took Flaherty deep in this series decider.
HR Prop #3: Aaron Judge
It honestly feels like just a matter of time until Aaron Judge goes yard. Hopefully this isn’t his last opportunity to smack a homer as the New York Yankees need to win to advance to the ALDS, but Judge has looked solid in this series so far.
He’s 4-for-8 through the first two games, and naturally, Aaron Judge crushed 53 home runs in 2025. Five of them against the Boston Red Sox. There's no better stage for the Yankees captain than Yankee Stadium, where he’s primed to keep delivering.
The Yanks need their best guy to deliver tonight, and he may just come up clutch.
