The Washington Nationals are on the verge of rebuilding, having recently let go of their manager and general manager. However, they have identified a promising talent in outfielder James Wood, who is having a standout season with a slash line of .257/.357/.487, including 25 home runs and 77 RBIs. In the past three games, he has notably secured five extra-base hits (four doubles and one home run).
On Monday, Wood’s team will face the Kansas City Royals and their left-handed pitcher, Bailey Falter, who has struggled recently, allowing seven earned runs in his last outing.
Wood is particularly effective against left-handed pitchers, and with odds set at +550 for him to hit a home run, he stands out as a solid pick among today’s MLB home run proposals. For context, the SportsLine model, which runs 10,000 simulations of each MLB game, has been up nearly 59 units on individual HR picks this season.
