MLB HR props for Friday 9/29: This prop is Taylor made

We've made it to the final day of home run props in the regular season. Let's finish the year off with a bang and build up the bankroll for the playoffs with my three favorite HR prop bets for Friday's MLB slate.

Ronald Acuna Jr. (+320 DraftKings)

There's no reason Ronald Acuna's home run price should be higher than +300 in this spot. The Atlanta Braves slugger is batting .350 with four homers over his last 40 at-bats, and he's staring down a great matchup on Friday night. In 15 career ABs against Washington Nationals starter Trevor Williams, Acuna is batting .467 and slugging .867 with two home runs. 

Christian Encarnacion-Strand (+420 FanDuel)

You may not know the name Christian Encarnacion-Strand just yet, but he's the hottest power hitter in baseball right now. The Cincinnati Reds rookie leads the league with six home runs over the last 15 days, and he's done most of his damage against right-handed pitching. Encarnacion-Strand has cracked 11 of his 12 home runs this season off righties, so let's ride the hot hand with St. Louis Cardinals righty Jake Woodford on the mound.

Michael A. Taylor (+500 DK)

With the friendly hitting conditions and the wind blowing out to left field at Coors Field on Friday night, Ballpark Pal is projecting a 28 percent boost to home runs. That's by far the largest boost on the slate. Let's roll with Michael A. Taylor, who leads the Minnesota Twins with eight home runs against left-handed pitching and has already taken Colorado Rockies lefty Ty Blanch yard in only two at-bats against him.
