MLB home run props for Mon. 8/19: Time to get back to work

It's a brand new week in home run prop land, and we're looking to kick it off right with a winner (or two, or three). Let's do just that with our three favorite HR bets for Monday's MLB slate.

Bobby Witt Jr. (+320 FanDuel )

Angels at Royals, 8 p.m. ET

If Witt is playing in Kauffman Stadium, there's a good chance he's going to crack our home run prop card for the day. The Kansas City Royals star is batting .403 and slugging .728 at home this season with 12 home runs and 25 doubles. He's also batting .395 and slugging .884 with five home runs over the last 15 days. Los Angeles Angels starter Carson Fulmer ranks in the 12th percentile in barrel rate (10.2 percent), and he surrendered two dingers in his last start against the Toronto Blue Jays.

Luis Robert (+600 DraftKings )

White Sox at Giants, 9:45 p.m. ET

We like fading San Francisco Giants starter Kyle Harrison with a home run prop every time he takes the mound due to his high barrel rate (10.8 percent) and 4-seam fastball rate (58.4 percent). Well, Robert leads the Chicago White Sox in xSLG (.609) and hard-hit rate (58.5 percent) against 4-seamers this year, and we know he has the pop to hit one out at Oracle Park. A strong wind projected to blow straight out to center field will only help him in this matchup.

Luke Raley (+550 DK )

Mariners at Dodgers, 10:10 p.m. ET

Another pitcher we love to fade is Los Angeles Dodgers starter Gavin Stone. The right-hander has given up nine home runs in his last seven starts, and the wind is projected to blow out to center field at Dodger Stadium, one of the most hitter-friendly parks in MLB. Raley is on fire with a .353 batting average, a .706 slugging percentage and a 53.8 percent hard-hit rate against righties over the last two weeks. He can jump on one of Stone's mistakes in this one.
