It\u2019s the “Wednesday Wallop Watch,” and several hitters are stepping into prime power spots across the slate. We have favorable matchup histories, pitchers struggling against specific splits and a few sluggers bringing serious home run upside into Wednesday night.<\/p>\n
We have Byron Buxton<\/a> facing a pitcher who has been getting crushed by right-handed power all season, Ozzie Albies<\/a> drawing a matchup against a lefty he\u2019s absolutely owned throughout his career, and Jo Adell<\/a> taking on a pitcher he\u2019s already taken deep twice while posting ridiculous lifetime numbers against him. If you\u2019re chasing home run props Wednesday night, these are bats with serious moonshot potential.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n All odds are from DraftKings Sportsbook<\/a> and are subject to change.

That\u2019s exactly the kind of matchup you want for Buxton, who has been crushing righties all year. Sixteen of Buxton\u2019s 17 home runs have come against right-handed pitching, and he continues to post elite hard-hit numbers.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Ozzie Albies Home Run Bet (+373)<\/p>\n Albies has absolutely owned Patrick Corbin<\/a> throughout his career, batting .438 with three doubles, a triple, and three home runs in 32 at-bats. He\u2019ll also get the platoon advantage Wednesday, hitting from the right side where he\u2019s shown more power this season. Corbin hasn\u2019t given up many home runs overall, but all five he\u2019s allowed have come against right-handed hitters.<\/p>\n Jo Adell Home Run Bet (+840)<\/p>\n Adell has some eye-popping numbers against Michael Lorenzen<\/a>, which is enough to get my attention Wednesday night. Adell is 6-for-11 lifetime against Lorenzen with two home runs, a .545 average and a 1.091 slugging percentage. He\u2019s also swinging a hot bat with two home runs over the last week. Lorenzen has already allowed 10 home runs this season and continues to give up plenty of balls in the air.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n 2026 MLB HR Leaders<\/p>\n This story was originally published by Athlon Sports<\/a> on Jun 3, 2026, where it first appeared in the Sports Betting<\/a> section.
