Best home run picks for Saturday, June 6
- Juan Soto, Mets (+310)
- Corbin Carroll, Diamondbacks (+380)
Juan Soto, Mets (+310, FanDuel)
San Diego isn't always the easiest park to go yard at, but Soto has had no issues there in the past. He homered 40 times as a member of the Padres in a year-plus of action, and he had 17 homers at Petco Park in 117 starts. Griffin Canning starts for the Padres on Saturday and he's been roughed up a bit in six starts, allowing six homers, including five over his last three outings. He's also allowed a homer to Soto in three career at-bats. Soto has hit 10 of his 13 home runs off right-handers this season and is OPSing over 1.000 against them. The star outfielder also figures to be due as he hasn't left the yard since the calendar flipped to June.

Corbin Carroll, Arizona Diamondbacks (+380, DraftKings)
Some players just love hitting at home, and that's certainly the case with Carroll. The star Arizona outfielder has played exceptionally well at Chase Field this year, hitting six of his nine homers there. Carroll and the rest of the Dbacks' lineup get a great matchup on Saturday against Nationals' Zack Littell, who has allowed 15 homers this season, including 12 to left-handed hitters. Carroll is 2-for-5 with two doubles off Littell in his career. Carroll has better overall numbers against lefties this year, but seven of his nine homers have come off right-handed pitching. And even if the Diamondbacks knock Littell out early, the Nationals' bullpen is suspect and the team overall has allowed the second-most home runs in baseball entering Saturday.
