With temperatures forecasted to reach the mid-90s at Target Field in Minneapolis this Saturday, baseball enthusiasts can expect the ball to travel well. Coupled with the impressive performance of Byron Buxton from the Minnesota Twins, who recently hit four home runs in three games before his last matchup with the Milwaukee Brewers, he is again a strong candidate to succeed at the plate.
Facing left-hander Jose Quintana on Saturday, Buxton boasts a .326 batting average and an OPS of 1.094 against left-handed hurlers this season. His career stats against Quintana further bolster his case, going 5-for-20 with three extra-base hits. Thus, he emerges as one of SportsLine’s prime recommendations for a home run bet this Saturday, especially with the odds placed at +350 on BetMGM Sportsbook.
Best MLB Home Run Picks for Saturday, June 21:
- Byron Buxton, Twins (+350)
- Riley Greene, Tigers (+430)
- Manny Machado, Padres (+390)
Placing these bets could yield substantial returns, with odds reaching +9455 at FanDuel.
