It's been a great week for my MLB home run props, nailing Alex Bregman and Jose Ramirez dingers already. Let's get a few more wins on Friday.
I'm honing in on two unique boppers in Cedric Mullins and Nolan Gorman for my home run prop picks for June 7th:

Pick 1: Cedric Mullins To Homer (+650)
Orioles vs Rays Matchup Preview - Game Time: 6:40 pm ET
I'm gonna cut right to the chase: this line is incredible value.
Mullins has not been good this year, it's true. He's hitting just .178 on the season with six homers. But, he's getting one tonight.
The Orioles outfielder has crushed Rays starter Aaron Civale in the past, collecting five hits (three for extra bases) and two homers in 10 career at-bats. He's rocking a 1.700 OPS against Civale. Civale has also allowed a homer in six of his last seven games and rocks a 5.37 ERA on the year.
I like the Orioles in general in this contest, as Civale has been pretty bad against the entire Baltimore lineup. In 60 career at-bats against Civale, current O's hitters have a collective .333 average and 1.089 OPS. The O's are -120 favorites on the moneyline in the Tampa Bay vs Baltimore contest.

Pick 2: Nolan Gorman To Homer (+380)
Rockies vs Cardinals Matchup Preview - Game Time: 8:15 pm ET
Gorman is another guy who I think the books are off on tonight. The Cardinals slugger has four homers in the last week, posting a 1.107 OPS in his last 27 plate appearances.
But, crucially, he faces off against a Rockies starter who he should have plenty of opportunity to go yard. Colorado's Austin Gomber has allowed seven homers in his last six games (including two last time out). He's held Gorman to just one hit in four career plate appearances, but the Cardinals hitter's hot streak and Gomber's homer-tendencies make me confident Nolan goes long.
