BREAK IT DOWN:

(Stats taken from DraftKings Sportsbook’s Stats Hub)

Kyle Schwarber 1+ Home Run (+197): Schwarber leads the majors with 20 homers this season, and he and the Phillies are at home on Monday night in favorable hitting conditions against the Reds. The temperatures are forecasted to be around 90 degrees with the wind blowing out. He’ll take on Reds’ lefty Nick Lodolo. In 9.1 innings this season, he has allowed nine runs with three homers against him. Lodolo allowed a .297 average and a .340 wOBA to lefties last season. Schwarber has launched nine no-doubters in his last 10 games. Thirteen of his 20 homers have been at home, where he boasts a .489 ISO and a .486 wOBA.

Aaron Judge 1+ Home Run (+185): Judge and the Yankees are also at home on Monday night, taking on Patrick Corbin and the Blue Jays. He only had one homer in his nine-game road trip, but he hit three bombs in his seven home games to start the month of May. Nine of his 16 homers have come at Yankee Stadium, where he’s hitting .311 with a .481 wOBA on the year. Judge has also thrived against lefties with a .348 ISO and a .454 wOBA. Judge is 3-for-12 with a home run and a double in his career against Corbin. The Toronto southpaw has allowed three home runs in seven games this season, all against righties.

Matt Olson 1+ Home Run (+396): In another divisional matchup, the Braves and Marlins open a four-game set in Miami. Olson and the Braves will take on righty Max Meyer, who has limited lefties to a .196 batting average this season. He has given up a home run to Olson in their past meetings, though. Olson has hit 10 of his 14 homers on the road this season, and he has hit 10 of his 14 homers against righties. On the road, Olson has a .427 ISO and .455 wOBA, and against righties, he had a .363 ISO and .439 wOBA. With those splits in his favor, Olson is getting plenty of public attention as he takes his talents to South Beach on Monday.


3-Pick Same Game Parlay

Kyle Schwarber 1+ Home Run (+201)

Aaron Judge 1+ Home Run (+185)

Matt Olson 1+ Home Run (+381)

Parlay Odds: +4098
