The cheapest ticket to a big payout on any slate is a home run prop. Below are the bats we like in Cincinnati Reds @ Colorado Rockies, with the best price on each.
On the board for Cincinnati Reds @ Colorado Rockies: Hunter Goodman, Mickey Moniak, JJ Bleday, Elly De La Cruz, Sal Stewart, Eugenio Suárez are the hitters priced to go deep, each with the best price and book across 100+ sportsbooks below.
The board ranks by market price, not by our conviction — shortest odds means most likely to homer, not best value.

Compare each price to the rest of the field on the OddsShopper home run odds screen; when one book is a notably longer number than the others, that is where the line-shopping value is.

How to Bet Home Run Props the Smart Way
- Shop every book. The same home run prop can pay 100+ points more at one book than another. OddsShopper scans 100+ sportsbooks so you always take the best number — see the live home run board.
- Mind the price, not just the name. A great hitter at a short price can be worse value than a mid-tier bat the market is sleeping on. Compare the price to the field before you fire.
You don't have to handicap this — OddsShopper does the work for you. The matchup matters far less than the price: OddsShopper reads the sharp sportsbooks that set the fair line, checks every price for an edge, and surfaces only the +EV plays across every market at the click of a button — no hours of research, and no deep knowledge of the sport required. Every play it flags is backtested against real historical results, so you can see how the number has actually performed before you bet.
