My Home Run Pick for BetMGM’s MLB Grand Slam Jackpot

BetMGM users can win $50,000 in Bonus Bets with the MLB Grand Slam Jackpot.

You’re automatically entered when you bet at least $10 on any player to hit a home run on Friday, Sept. 27. If the player hits a grand slam, you’ll win the Bonus Bets (split among all winning entrants).

Bettors can place one home run wager per game to be eligible to win Bonus Bets, meaning a full 15-game slate could feature 15 different home run bets.

The Jackpot resets on Saturday and again on Sunday, so you have three different slates to win each weekend of the regular season.

Which player would I bet on today?

William Contreras โ€“ Milwaukee Brewers (+550)

As detailed in my MLB home run props today column, Iโ€™m confidently recommending a bet on Milwaukee Brewers catcher William Contreras to hit a homer against the New York Mets on Friday night at American Family Field.

This weekendโ€™s series is a potential 2024 MLB playoff picture preview, with the Brewers set to host the No. 6 seed in the Wild Card round next week. The Mets are currently No. 5, though the final two spots are up in the air with the Arizona Diamondbacks and Atlanta Braves looming.

Contreras offers the best value for hitting a home run on Friday. He has 23 this season, including one last Friday against the Diamondbacks.

Ballpark Palโ€™s model rates him as the ninth-most likely player to hit a homer in all of baseball, projecting a fair price of +390. THE BAT Xโ€™s projection of 0.18 home runs for Contreras also shows a slight value.

My home run props column (up nearly 50 units on the year) has been about identifying value all season. It has led to multiple winning tickets on Friday, though none of these picks have recorded a grand slam.

Hereโ€™s hoping Contreras can break that streak on the final Friday of the regular season.
