2022 MLB Home Run Derby odds, predictions: Best bets and picks for Monday's All-Star Game showcase from proven baseball expert
The MLB All-Star Game is Tuesday night in Los Angeles, but first up is a power-hitting display in the 2022 MLB Home Run Derby. Pete Alonso of the New York Mets is the two-time reigning champion and aims to be the first to win three in a row. He could join Ken Griffey Jr. as the only three-time winners.
Alonso is not the top seed, an honor that goes to Philadelphia's Kyle Schwarber, but he is the favorite. Caesars Sportsbook lists Alonso as the +190 favorite (risk $100 to win $190) on the money line in the latest 2022 Home Run Derby, with Schwarber right behind at +330.

Before you lock in your 2022 MLB All-Star Home Run Derby bets, you need to see what SportsLine baseball expert John Bollman has to say.
Bollman is on a tremendous run picking baseball games for SportsLine. He is 197-170 with his last 367 MLB picks after he went 380-309-1 in 2021. He returned $3,855 for $100 bettors last season and finished as SportsLine's No. 1 baseball expert.
It's no surprise: In 2018 Bollman, who has a master's degree in biostatistics, worked in the Toronto Blue Jays' analytics department, focusing on high-performance sports science and player development. He combines that MLB front-office experience with a deep statistical background to deliver incredible success on MLB picks.
For Monday night's showcase, we can tell you that Bollman is fading Acuña, even though the Braves star has been raking since returning from a torn ACL at the end of April. The 24-year-old lost to Alonso on a buzzer-beating homer in the second round in 2019, and now he has to face the champ in the opening round. Alonso hit 35 to set a record for the first round last year.
Instead, Bollman has identified a confident pick to win and has a mtachup for the final that would pay significant plus-money! You absolutely need to see Bollman's picks and analysis of the 2022 Home Run Derby before you bet!
