MLB home run props for Fri. 8/30: Great night, great price on Ramos

Boom!! Brandon Marsh went yard on Thursday night to end our cold streak and cash our +1100 home run prop . Now that we've got some cash flowing through the account, let's keep it rolling with three more HR bets for Friday's MLB slate.

Ezequiel Tovar (+350 DraftKings )

Orioles at Rockies, 8:40 p.m. ET

There aren't many players swinging the bat better than Tover right now. The Colorado Rockies slugger is batting .321 and slugging .679 with an impressive 65.0 percent hard-hit rate and a 45.0 percent fly-ball rate. Those are perfect metrics for a game at mile-high Coors Field. Baltimore Orioles starter Albert Suarez has been effective at avoiding barrels this season, but he throws a high rate of 4-seam fastballs (51.6 percent) and gave up two homers in his most recent start.

Jhonkensy Noel (+350 FanDuel )

Pirates at Guardians, 7:10 p.m. ET

Noel is on an absolute tear at the plate. The Cleveland Guardians outfielder is batting .353 and slugging .765 with two homers over his last five games. Noel is especially crushing lefties, as the big man has a ridiculous 71.4 percent hard-hit rate and a 71.4 percent fly-ball rate against southpaws over the last two weeks. Noel steps up to the plate wishing to inflict pain on the baseball every time he takes a rip, and this is a great matchup against Bailey Falter and his 50.1 percent 4-seam fastball rate.

Heliot Ramos (+550 DK )

Marlins at Giants, 10:15 p.m. ET

We can't wait to fade Adam Oller in the nightcap. The Miami Marlins right-hander is always vulnerable to giving up home runs because he throws his 4-seam fastball a whopping 63 percent of the time, so let's try to take advantage of that. Ramos leads the San Francisco Giants in home runs (three) and slugging percentage (.561) over the last 15 days, and he's been crushing fastballs all year. The outfielder has a .644 xSLG and a 61.4 percent hard-hit rate against 4-seam fastballs.
