Miguel Vargas
Freddie Freeman
Home run prediction: Miguel Vargas
The man with 33 regular-season long balls hasn't hit one in the playoffs, but he's in a great spot to do so this afternoon at home against a pitcher Miguel Vargas has been enjoying some success against.
The Cleveland Guardians are turning to Daniel Espino to open, and he's a largely unproven commodity with just 15.1 innings under his belt this year. Now he's coming into the Thunderdome, as Rate Field hasn't hosted a postseason game in four years and will undoubtedly be a tough place to pitch.
Vargas, who has logged two at-bats against Espino, has already gone deep against him and is money at home, owning an .887 OPS. If he's going to hit a bomb, now would be the time.

Home run prediction: Freddie Freeman
Good ol' reliable Freddie Freeman, welcome back to our home run props. Freeman has clubbed a dinger in consecutive games and is 8-for-19 hitting with a double and a home run (.292 xBA, .506 xSLG) against Tyler Mahle.
That puts us in a great position to cash this trade. His splits are the cherry on top, as Freddie mashes righties to the tune of a .850 OPS. That'll play.
When Freeman gets going, he's an incredibly difficult out, and we're getting him in the middle of a hot streak. Let's ride with him and cash a big one.
