A home run prop lives and dies on the number, so the price matters as much as the pick. Here are the bombs worth backing in Chicago Cubs @ Cincinnati Reds.
On the board for Chicago Cubs @ Cincinnati Reds: Pete Crow-Armstrong, Seiya Suzuki, Sal Stewart, Elly De La Cruz, Eugenio Suárez, Ian Happ are the hitters priced to go deep, each with the best price and book across 100+ sportsbooks below.
