MLB Home Runs Leader Odds for 2026

Top Contenders

Analysis

The MLB home run leader odds market is once again dominated by Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani, and for good reason:

• Judge has led MLB twice recently and is projected for ~49 HRs
• Ohtani brings elite power with improving contact quality
• Schwarber and Raleigh offer pure volume power profiles

Historically, this market:

• Rewards high fly-ball + barrel rate hitters
• Still allows longshot winners (Raleigh 60 HR in 2025)

Best Bet: Shohei Ohtani (+240)

Why:

• Elite combination of power + durability
• Consistent barrel rate + hard-hit %
• Slightly better value vs Judge
