- To Hit a Home Run: Kris Bryant (+360) — Pittsburgh Pirates starter Steven Brault has had an uninspiring season so far splitting time between the rotation bullpen. Today the lefty faces a Cubs lineup packed with dangerous righties, including Kris Bryant, who has been exceptional at home this year with a .303/.413/.543 line. Bryant has also had great success against Brault in his career, going 7-for-12 with a homer and two doubles.
