MLB HR Targets 8 PITCHERS Home Run Matchups is PropsBot’s dated MLB model read for August 18, 2026. PropsBot’s August 18 home-run pitcher board highlights Eric Lauer, Cristian Javier, Bryce Miller, Ryan Feltner, Merrill Kelly, Zebby Matthews, Jack Perkins and Kyle Harrison as matchups worth researching. These are pitchers to attack with opposing bats, not eight pitcher bets.
Why the model flags this spot
Eric Lauer ranks first against Colorado at 2.02 HR/9, with left-handed bats at 6.3% over 95 batters faced. Cristian Javier is second against the Angels at 1.68 HR/9 and 5.9% to right-handed bats. Bryce Miller ranks third against Milwaukee at 1.48 HR/9 in a hitter-friendly park.
Historical performance
The rest of the board lists Ryan Feltner at 1.86 HR/9, Merrill Kelly at 1.80, Zebby Matthews at 1.78, Jack Perkins at 1.77 and Kyle Harrison at 1.26. Because Feltner’s raw rate exceeds two pitchers ranked above him, this is a composite vulnerability ranking rather than a simple highest-HR/9 sort.
Risk and matchup context
The screenshot contains pitcher rates and target handedness, but no hitter names, home-run probabilities or sportsbook prices. The smaller split samples — especially Lauer’s 95 batters faced — are tendencies, not settled projections. Confirm lineups and live market numbers before choosing any bat.
