Best home run picks for Sunday, May 10

- Rafael Devers , Giants (+600) - Manny Machado , Padres (+520) - Bobby Witt Jr., Royals (+600)

Rafael Devers, Giants (+600, DraftKings)

Devers has four home runs this season but could take advantage of a favorable pitching matchup Sunday. The Giants first baseman had 35 home runs last season and is off to a bit of a slow start with a .224 average. But Devers is hitting .302 on balls in play, and his hard-hit rate is 46%. That's 10% below last season's performance, but Pirates starter Bubba Chandler has allowed three homers over his past three starts. Devers could see a good pitch he can send a long way Sunday.

Manny Machado, Padres (+520, FanDuel)

Machado is slumping a bit, hitting just .197 so far this season, but he has hit .275 the past two seasons and is still good for 25 homers, so he should turn things around. He could get a bit of a spark today against Cardinals right-hander Kyle Leahy . Machado can still crush right-handed pitchers, with five of his six home runs this season coming against them. Leahy has allowed six home runs in 34.2 innings, second-most among Cards starters. Machado should be able to launch one Sunday.

Bobby Witt Jr., Royals (+600, BetMGM)

Witt has been hot lately, hitting three of his five homers over the past week. And while I typically wouldn't back a player to hit a home run in back-to-back games, this could be the spot to do it. The Tigers are planning a bullpen game on the mound, with righty Brenan Hanifee leading things off. Witt is hitting .324 in May with a .997 OPS and .622 slugging percentage. The Detroit bullpen has a 4.08 ERA (17th in MLB), and while the different looks could throw some hitters off, Witt has been locked in.
