The MLB home run prop bets for May 8, 2025, are up and running with a number of hitters ready to go deep. Today’s list is slightly different from the usual, as there are no leading home run hitters expected to crank one. However, some sluggers are already hitting double-digit home runs.

The Detroit Tigers slugger has been incredible with his performance this season. Torkelson has hit 10 home runs already, and he’s on pace to have a 40-plus home run season. The Tigers are up against the Colorado Rockies, which gives Torkelson an easy opportunity to go deep.

4) Byron Buxton +390

The Minnesota Twins star Byron Buxton had a great start to the 2025 MLB season. Buxton is one of those players who are not appreciated. The slugger has nine home runs, and he’s up to hit his 10th today against the Baltimore Orioles.

3) Corey Seager +475

Seager’s start to this MLB season is pretty slow, but he’s going to pick up the pace soon. The Texas Rangers star hit four home runs, and he’s predicted to launch his fifth. Seager and his wife, Madisyn, are ready to welcome their first child.

2) Mookie Betts +550

The Dodgers star’s 2025 MLB season started out on the IL, but he’s been picking up the pace and trying to stay consistent as much as possible. Betts has five home runs this MLB season. It’s a slow start for the shortstop as well, but he has enough time to get there.

1) Alec Bohm +600

The Philadelphia Phillies had plans to trade Alec Bohm in the offseason. Bohm might get back onto the trading block since he’s been struggling to make ends meet. The slugger has only one home run this season, and he’s all set to hit his second. The Phillies are ranked at No. 9 in the week 6 MLB power rankings.

For those placing MLB home run bets, it’s important to note that the odds are subject to change, and the outcome is not guaranteed.
