Mets vs. Yankees, 7:05PM ET

BET: Pete Alonso 1+ HR (+280)

The Polar Bear gets a nice match up to start his week off against Yankees pitcher Domingo Germán (1-2, 4.45 ERA). Alonso has a .400 career batting average against Germán which includes a home run. He hasn't exactly been prolific as of late with just one homer in the past three weeks, but this is his chance.

Rangers vs. Twins, 7:10PM ET

BET: Byron Buxton 1+ HR (+250)

Starting Texas pitcher Cole Ragans is having a sobering rookie year with a 5.02 ERA from his first three starts in the Major Leagues, which includes four home runs given up the the opposition. He'll be in line to face a baptism of fire against one of the real power hitters of the MLB in Byron Buxton. Buxton hasn't registered a hit in three games, but this matchup against an inexperienced ace is far too good to pass up.
