The New York Yankees continue to dominate the MLB with a total of 38 home runs, leading the league. With favorable weather conditions in Cleveland for left-handed hitters, the Yankees are poised for another explosive game against the Guardians. Trent Grisham recently hit his sixth home run, with FanDuel listing him at +450 to hit another on Monday. The Yankees' projection model is showing strong performances, with several players, including Pete Alonso, Kerry Carpenter, and Anthony Santander, highlighted as prime candidates for home run props.

Alonso, a two-time Home Run Derby champion, boasts impressive stats against Aaron Nola, while Carpenter is in excellent form with multiple hits in recent games. Even with Carpenter out of the lineup, other players like Mike Yastrzemski and Grisham are seen as valuable picks. As the season progresses, the Yankees' slugging capabilities will be crucial for fantasy managers and sports bettors looking to capitalize on home run bets.

Kerry Carpenter of the Detroit Tigers is dealing with a mild hamstring injury, yet positive news indicates he won't need an injured list stint. Manager A.J. Hinch confirmed Carpenter is day-to-day, expressing relief that the tests showed no severe issues.

With the Tigers' outfield already strained by injuries, including Parker Meadows on the 60-day IL, the team is adapting to keep their competitive edge.

The Detroit Tigers are facing potential injury woes as outfielder Kerry Carpenter is set to undergo tests due to right hamstring soreness. Carpenter exited the game during the ninth inning of the Tigers' 4-3 extra innings defeat against the Kansas City Royals. Manager A.J. Hinch noted the injury occurred after Carpenter legged out an infield single. Prior to the injury, Carpenter was having a strong game, going 3-for-4 with an RBI.

The Tigers are already contending with multiple injuries in the outfield, including center fielder Parker Meadows and Matt Vierling, who are sidelined with various ailments. As they prepare for a series against the San Diego Padres—currently one of baseball's hottest teams—the health of Carpenter becomes crucial, particularly as he has been a consistent contributor, hitting .290 with five home runs and 10 RBIs this season.

The Detroit Tigers showcased an impressive performance in their 9-1 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers, with Tarik Skubal leading the charge on the mound. Skubal was dominant, allowing no hits through four innings and finishing with nine strikeouts and only four hits allowed in seven innings.

The Tigers' offense was equally thrilling, with every player in the starting lineup contributing, highlighted by Kerry Carpenter's fifth homer of the season and Gleyber Torres driving in three runs. Defensively, the Tigers were flawless, while the Brewers struggled, committing two errors.
