Rays third baseman Junior Caminero continues posting excellent power numbers this season, as he cracked the 30-home run mark on the year against the Angels on Wednesday before going yard again on Friday night against the Mariners. Caminero has three homers in his last two games, and he also homered against the Dodgers last Saturday. The 22-year-old is +400 to homer on Saturday in the MLB odds from DraftKings Sportsbook. He is facing Mariners rookie starter Logan Evans, who has allowed 12 home runs in 13 starts, so SportsLine’s Inside the Lines team is backing Caminero in their MLB HR bets on Saturday.
They are also backing Angels outfielder Jo Adell (+525) and Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez (+350) in their MLB HR props.

Junior Caminero, Rays (+400, DraftKings)
Caminero has notable home/road splits, but he’s homered three times in his last two road games heading into today. While his road OPS sits at .629 compared to .982 at home, he’s now up to 13 HRs in 51 road games. He’s been much better against right-handed pitching this season, and Logan Evans is the most vulnerable RHP in the Mariners’ rotation—right-handed batters have an .815 OPS against him. We set Caminero’s line at +285 to homer for a third straight game. You can bet this prop at DraftKings, which is offering $200 off NFL Sunday Ticket and $200 in bonus bets instantly after your first wager of $5 or more:
Jo Adell, Angels (+525, BetMGM)
Adell’s line is all over the place, but +525 is excellent value compared to the +405 average. He’s hit three home runs in his last four games, bringing his season total to 24. Right-handed hitters are batting .277 against Charlie Morton this season. While they don’t hit for as much power as lefties against Morton, Adell’s elite bat speed (98th percentile) and barrel rate (95th percentile) make him a threat if he makes contact. We set Adell’s line at +440 to homer. This price is available at BetMGM, where you can also use the BetMGM promo code to get up to $1,500 in bonus bets if your first bet loses:
José Ramírez, Guardians (+350, FanDuel)
Ramírez and the Guardians are surging, having won 8 of their last 9 games and sitting just half a game back of the final Wild Card spot. He’s a pure hitter from both sides of the plate, but has shown more power from the left side—19 of his 23 home runs have come against right-handed pitchers. He’s 0-for-4 in his career against Sean Burke, but that sample is too small to be concerning. We set Ramírez’s line at +290 to homer, and the latest FanDuel promo code offers $150 in bonus bets if your first wager of $5 or more wins:

Lions LB Jack Campbell shrugs off NFL memo flagging his attempts at forcing fumbles: ‘I’m gonna keep punching’
The NFL reportedly has concerns about the play of Detroit Lions linebacker Jack Campbell. The Lions don't seem too worried about it.Speaking with reporters on Friday, defensive coordinator Kelvin Sheppard revealed the league issued a memo flagging a play involving Campbell attempting to punch the ball out of an offensive player's hands, specifically noting defenders should be punching at the ball and not the player.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisement[Yahoo Sports TV is here! Watch live shows and highlights 24/7]Sheppard defended his player's conduct, saying he hopes Campbell continues his style of play for the rest of the season:“Look at Jack. I mean, they just sent out a memo and the tape — I mean, the way Jack is doing it — it’s violent, it’s aggressive, and it’s the way we play.

Rookie Gio Ruggiero grabs first career win at Talladega
Gio Ruggiero sits in his car between practice runs at the Slinger Nationals on Tuesday, July 11, 2023, at Slinger Speedway in Slinger, Wisconsin. TALLADEGA, Ala. -- Rookie Gio Ruggiero capped a typically dramatic afternoon of racing on the Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway high banks with the 21-year old's first career trip to Victory Lane in Friday's Love's RV Stop 225 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series race. Though not in the Playoffs, Ruggiero held off his Tricon Garage teammate and current championship leader Corey Heim in a two-lap overtime duel to the checkered flag, his No. 17 Toyota leading the way by a mere .059-second. The effort rewarded an absolutely strong day for the young driver, who won pole position and led a race-best 37 of the 90 laps. He took the lead with two laps remaining in regulation after then-race leaders, […]
