Daily Dingers for Tuesday (August 18th): Best & Most Fun Home Run Bets

New York Yankees vs Baltimore Orioles

Start Time: 6:35 PM EST

I’ve got an American League East-heavy slate of home run prop bets tomorrow, the first coming from an AL East matchup between the New York Yankees and the Baltimore Orioles.

Carlos Rodon is scheduled to start on the bump for the visitors tomorrow, and young slugger Gunnar Henderson feasts on his pitching. The shortstop, who has two homers in his past five games, has taken Rodon yard twice in 12 career at-bats.

Best Bet: Gunnar Henderson (+550)

Arizona Diamondbacks vs Boston Red Sox

Start Time: 7:10 PM EST

Next we’re heading to another AL East ballpark, as the Boston Red Sox host the Arizona Diamondbacks in an interleague game. The Snakes are sending Merrill Kelly to the mound, and he’s allowed 25 dingers this season, among the highest amounts in the majors.

I like Willson Contreras to add to that infamous total of Kelly’s tomorrow. Contreras has a homer in 13 career at-bats against Kelly and a 1.600 OPS.

Best Bet: Willson Contreras (+463)

Bonus Bet: Kyle Schwarber (+245)

2026 Overall Record: 28-140 (17%)
