MLB prop bets and home run best bets for the Monday, June 3rd slate, focusing on Gunnar Henderson and Yordan Alvarez.
Monday's Major League Baseball slate is small with a handful of teams traveling, but that's not stopping us from keying in on a handful of prominent sluggers to go deep.
Don't sleep on AL MVP candidate Gunnar Henderson either, who is raking this season and will face a struggling Kevin Gausman before seeing a below-average Blue Jays bullpen. Henderson is at the top of most hitting metrics, including 19 home runs and a slugging percentage flirting with .600 . He is in the 98th percentile in terms of hard-hit percentage, per MLBSo, we know that he can rake, but the matchup also sets up nicely for the shortstop, facing a struggling Gausman who is allowing an xSLG of .451 and opponents to find the barrel on nearly 9% of pitches, 30th percentile.
The matchup is appetizing on Monday against Cardinals' starter Kyle Gibson, who has an xERA of 5.24 which is far higher than his actual ERA of 3.60. He doesn't strikeout many batters, less than 20% this season, and has allowed a ton of hard contact, he ranks in the 25th percentile in that metric.
