The only All-Star Game (and subsequent events) worth watching in the professional sports world goes down this week, as MLB’s Midsummer Classic is in the on-deck circle. For my best bet for Monday, July 14th: Home Run Derby Predictions, we’re off to Truist Park in Atlanta, Georgia. Let’s go!
Best Bet For Monday (July 14th): Home Run Derby Predictions
2025 T-MOBILE HOME RUN DERBY
Start Time: 8:00 PM EST
Is the MLB Home Run Derby going the way of the NBA’s Slam Dunk Contest? The dunk contest has been going downhill for years due to the lack of big-name talent participating in it. This year’s home run contest is bereft of former champions as well as big-time names. No Judge. No Ohtani. No Soto. No Vladdy.
Maybe a player can elevate himself with a big performance at the plate tomorrow. And I’m betting (hoping) that this player will be a non-American. No offense to the Americans in the event, but the value seems to be on the international participants.
That trio would be Junior Caminero and Oneil Cruz of the Dominican Republic, and Jazz Chisholm Jr from the Bahamas. While the first two are the longest long shots in the event, Cruz is our best bet, as he’s the second shortest to win after Cal Raleigh.
After crunching the numbers, the international trio has a 40% chance of winning, and we’re getting better odds than that.
Best Bet: Rest of the World to win Home Run Derby (+170)
Best Bet Overall Record: 248-223 (53%)
Profit (based on $100/bet): -($856.34)
Return on Investment: -2%
