Are you ready to blast a home run with your winning wagers? Well, look no further than next week for a prime betting opportunity.

Two-time winner Pete Alonso of the New York Mets and top seed Luis Robert of the Chicago White Sox headline the eight-player field in the All-Star Game Home Run Derby, set for 8 p.m. ET on July 10 at T-Mobile Park in Seattle.

Robert and Alonso have the most homers this season (25) among the eight participants. Robert was seeded first based on the tiebreaker of most home runs since June 15 (nine, four more than Alonso).

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. of the Toronto Blue Jays holds the record for most homers in one round (40 in 2019). His father, Vladimir Guerrero, won the 2007 Derby as a member of the Los Angeles Angels.

Which of these sluggers has the best chance to win? 

Let’s dive into the odds for the 2023 Home Run Derby:

Pete Alonso, New York Mets: +300 (bet $10 to win $40 total)
Vladimir Guerrero Jr., Toronto Blue Jays: +350 (bet $10 to win $45 total)
Luis Robert Jr., Chicago White Sox: +450 (bet $10 to win $55 total)
Julio Rodríguez, Seattle Mariners: +500 (bet $10 to win $60 total)
Adolis García, Texas Rangers: +650 (bet $10 to win $75 total)
Randy Arozarena, Tampa Bay Rays: +1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total)
Mookie Betts, Los Angeles Dodgers: +1200 (bet $10 to win $130 total)
Adley Rutschman, Baltimore Orioles: +2000 (bet $10 to win $210 total)

The entrants are seeded based on their 2023 home runs. Here are the first-round matchups:

No. 1 Robert vs. No. 8 Rutschman 
No. 4 García vs. No. 5 Arozarena
No. 2 Alonso vs. No. 7 Rodríguez
No. 3 Betts vs. No. 6 Guerrero Jr.

Pete Alonso (+300) is the betting favorite as he looks to join Ken Griffey Jr. as the only player to win the award three times. Do you like his chances?

Mookie Betts (+1200) has the fifth-most homers in the league this season, but he remains a long shot. The seven-time All-Star is participating in his first Derby and could help you win big at these odds if he gets hot.

Julio Rodriguez (+500) was a close runner-up last year to Juan Soto and is looking to win this Derby in only his second season. If he can knock off Alonso in the first round, he will have as good a chance of anyone to take home this trophy.

The 93rd All-Star Game can be seen on FOX and the FOX Sports App at 8 p.m. ET on Tuesday.
