Today’s Three Best MLB Home Run Prop Bets for Dodgers vs. Blue Jays World Series Game 5
#3. Freddie Freeman
Freeman enters Game 5 with the kind of groove and track record that makes him a dangerous middle-order catalyst for the Dodgers. He hit .295 with 24 homers and 90 RBIs during the regular season and has been a consistent postseason run producer across his career, including a huge walk-off homer in the marathon Game 3 that just swung momentum back to L.A.
Against Toronto rookie right-hander Trey Yesavage, Freeman’s experience and ability to punish mistakes in the zone could be the difference.
Given his calm approach, power to all fields and history of delivering under pressure, Freeman feels primed for another statement swing Wednesday night in front of the home crowd.
#2. Max Muncy
Max Muncy’s postseason has been a quiet burn, flashes of power, long at-bats and that unmistakable feeling that he’s one swing away from changing a game.
Although his regular season numbers (.243 BA, 19 homers) didn’t leap off the page, Muncy has made a career of stepping up in October, with several clutch postseason homers to his name.
What makes him particularly intriguing Wednesday night is the matchup, facing a young righty who relies heavily on his fastball-slider combo in Trey Yesavage.
His compact, uppercut swing plays perfectly under the bright lights, and with the series deadlocked, don’t be surprised if Muncy sends one deep into the right-field pavilion when it matters most.
#1. Alejandro Kirk
Alejandro Kirk has been one of Toronto’s productive postseason bats. The stocky catcher has come alive in October, blasting five home runs in just 59 postseason at-bats including a clutch three-run shot in Game 3 that helped Toronto even the series.
Kirk’s recent play has been electric, and he’s seeing the ball beautifully, driving pitches to all parts of the field and proving that power can come from any frame.
Wednesday night, he faces Blake Snell, a lefty who’s had a strong season (2.35 ERA) but has shown occasional command lapses against right-handed hitters.
With the series now effectively a best-of-three, Kirk’s bat could once again tilt the momentum. If Toronto is going to take back control, it’s likely their red-hot catcher who delivers another loud statement.
