Best MLB Home Run Props Today HR Picks for Friday, June 12

I went through all 15 games on Friday, June 12th to find the best home run matchups so you don't have to. Using PropFinder's data tools, I identified a combination of vulnerable pitchers, strong hitter splits, favorable weather, and ballpark factors. Below are my top three MLB home run props and best home run picks for today's slate.

Pick 1: Jake Bauers to hit a HR --- (+375, Hard Rock Bet)

PLAYER HOME RUNSPHI@MIL· Jun 12, 7:40 PM ET

Jake Bauers

Over 0.5 Player Home Runs

Bet now+375

Matchup vs Andrew Painter (Phillies), American Family Field, 7:40PM EST

Bauers has been hot, hitting 4 home runs over his last ten games. Ten of his 12 home runs this season have been off a righty, which is highly beneficial for our slugger's odds today. Painter has struggled significantly to avoid heavy left-handed contact, giving up 4 home runs over just 14.2 IP, along with a 37% hard hit rate, and a 35.2% fly ball rate.

Pick 2: Spencer Steer to hit a HR --- (+461, DraftKings)

PLAYER HOME RUNSARI@CIN· Jun 12, 7:15 PM ET

Spencer Steer

Over 0.5 Player Home Runs

Bet now+461

Matchup vs Eduardo Rodriguez (Diamondbacks), Great American Ball Park, 7:15PM EST

Over his last two seasons, Rodriguez has struggled vs. right-handed hitters. He has given up 32 total home runs, 27 of which have come against right-handers. Over his last 10 plate appearances, Steer has accumulated a 30% barrel, 3 home runs and an average hit distance of 321 ft. This data, along with a favorable home run hitting park (especially to right-handed hitters), and wind blowing out makes Steer my second favorite home run pick on today's massive Friday slate.

Pick 3: Jac Caglianone to hit a HR --- (+425, Hard Rock Bet)

PLAYER HOME RUNSHOU@KC· Jun 12, 8:10 PM ET

Jac Caglianone

Over 0.5 Player Home Runs

Bet now+425

Matchup vs Tatsuya Imai (Astros), Kauffman Stadium, 8:10PM EST

In just 18.1 IP against left-handed hitters, Imai has given up four home runs, a 54.9% hard-hit rate, and a 30.8% HR/FB rate. To match that, Jac has a 20%+ season barrel rate to his top two pitches, including a 15%+ pull barrel rate. From a pitch-mix perspective, this is as green of a light as you can get.
