Inside the Lines team<\/p>\n
The San Diego Padres have their backs against the wall during the Wednesday MLB schedule, as the Chicago Cubs can close out the best-of-three National League wild-card series. Padres outfielder Jackson Merrill scored the team’s lone run in a 3-1 loss on Tuesday, getting driven in by Xander Bogaerts after doubling to lead off the second inning. Merrill hit .264 with 16 homers during the regular season, and he is +700 to go yard in the Wednesday MLB HR odds.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Merrill had seven home runs in 24 games in September, so SportsLine’s Inside the Lines team is backing him with their MLB HR bets on Wednesday. MLB home run props are available for almost every player in every game at various\u00a0sportsbooks<\/a>, and SportsLine’s proven computer model can help you find value for your\u00a0MLB betting<\/a>\u00a0picks.

Merrill finished the month of September with 7 HRs in 24 games played. While it looks like the Cubs are going to use an opener in front of LHP Shota Imanaga, we still like the value on Merrill assuming he gets 1 or 2 ABs against right-handed pitchers in this game. We set Merrill’s line at +520 to homer, so getting +700 is worth a sprinkle as a longshot.
