LOOKING TO MAKE A FEW $$$ ON THE HR DERBY?

If you’re an action junky and you can't resist taking a night off PayneInsider will help to guide you in the right direction.

Looking to make a few dollars on the HR Derby this evening? Well here are some wagers that we find most appealing. If your wanting to find a winner for the overall contest first start by eliminating all the right-handed sluggers. As we have known for years Yankee Stadium is extremely favorable to the Lefties. That would leave you with Lance Berkman, Josh Hamilton Chase Utley, Justin Morneau, and Grady Sizemore. The odds for these left-handed sluggers are below...

Lance Berkman +350
Josh Hamilton +350
Chase Utley +400
Grady Sizemore +500
Justin Morneau +800

From this group we like guys that are true power hitters when need be. We just don't see Justin Morneau as a true HR guy, so we will eliminate him from contention. After that the other four you could flip a coin on. If you’re looking to get the best odds Grady Sizemore would fit that need. They are all great hitters that hit for average and power. You can't go wrong picking any of the four, however our gut feeling is it will come down to Lance Berkman or Josh Hamilton. The way these guys have been tearing the cover off the ball this season is at another level. The Cinderella story that has been so far this year may continue tonight with Josh Hamilton. I hope this has narrowed down your choices and earns you a few extra dollars on the side.

Some great prop bets that we love that are offered on http://bodoglife.com/ are head to head bets between certain players. Who will have the most total HR's after the 1st round of the derby. Again, we are going with the lefties in this category. Two of the head to head bets we love is Lance Berkman (-155) Vs. Dan Uggla and Lance Berkman Vs.(-155) Vs. Evan Longoria. As we have discussed a 100x in this article we love the lefties. Add that with the fact it's Uggla's first HR Derby ever, and he is still seriously favoring that ankle. On the other side you have a Rookie in Longoria who will just be enamored to be in Yankee stadium. Those factors make these plays very profitable ones in our opinion.

PayneInsider hopes this has helped you action junkies out there that just can't get enough...
