Analysis of Home Run Props and Odds for Each Player Utilizing a Torpedo Bat

• Several New York Yankees are using a new style of bat, dubbed a “torpedo” bat
• Early returns for the Pinstripes’ new bat have been wildly successful
• Below, see the home run odds on Monday

The New York Yankees may have just revolutionized hitting. Working with an MIT physicist (Aaron Leanhardt), the Yankees designed a new style of bat that several of its starters are using in the 2025 regular season. The results so far have been almost too good to be true, at least for the Yankees players using the new style of lumber. The handful of other players across the league aren’t seeing the same success. More on that below.

Home Run Odds for Hitters Using “Torpedo Bat”

At the moment, the only home run odds on the board for a player using a torpedo bat belong to Minnesota catcher Ryan Jeffers, who’s off to a sluggish start to the season” 1-for-8 with a single and no walks in two games.

The Mets’ Francisco Lindor is 0-for-11 with three Ks, no walks, and one HBP after NYM’s three-game series against the Astros in Houston. It’s unclear if he’s playing tonight when the Mets start a three-game set at Miami. He’s not currently on the board in the Mets vs Marlins player props.

With the Yankees off on Monday, sportsbooks aren’t likely to post props for Tuesday’s Yankees vs Diamondbacks matchup (Corbin Burnes vs Will Warren) until later on Monday night at the earliest. The table above will be updated when the Diamondbacks vs Yankees player props are posted. You can also check back with SBD’s MLB player props page.

2025 vs 2024 Stats for Players Using Torpedo Bats

Adding Davis Schneider’s poor start to that of Lindor and Jeffers, all three non-Yankees who have been using a torpedo bat are trending in the wrong direction.

That stands in stark contrast to the four Yankees who are confirmed to be using torpedo bats. Each one has gone yard at least once (three have gone deep at least twice in the first two games) and all four have a significantly higher OPS through three games than they did in 2024.

Yes, it’s early days and this is a miniscule sample size. But the results are also too good to ignore completely.

Home run props and odds are a popular betting market in the world of baseball, offering fans the opportunity to wager on which player will hit a home run in a given game or series. With the introduction of the torpedo bat, a new and innovative piece of equipment designed to maximize power and distance, the landscape of home run props has been forever changed.

The torpedo bat is a revolutionary new bat that features a unique design aimed at increasing the speed and power of a player’s swing. By utilizing advanced materials and technology, the torpedo bat allows players to generate more force and momentum when making contact with the ball, resulting in longer and more powerful hits.

When analyzing home run props and odds for each player utilizing a torpedo bat, it is important to consider a few key factors. First and foremost, the player’s skill and ability to hit home runs should be taken into account. While the torpedo bat can certainly enhance a player’s power, it is ultimately up to the individual’s skill and technique to make solid contact with the ball.

Additionally, the player’s past performance and statistics should also be considered when placing bets on home run props. Players who have a history of hitting home runs consistently are more likely to succeed when using a torpedo bat, as their natural talent and experience will complement the bat’s enhanced capabilities.

Furthermore, the matchup between the player and the opposing pitcher should also be taken into consideration. Certain pitchers may be more susceptible to giving up home runs, making it more likely for a player using a torpedo bat to succeed in hitting one out of the park.

In terms of odds, players using a torpedo bat may have slightly higher odds of hitting a home run compared to those using a traditional bat. This is due to the increased power and speed generated by the torpedo bat, giving players an edge when it comes to hitting long balls.

Overall, analyzing home run props and odds for each player utilizing a torpedo bat requires a combination of skill, strategy, and knowledge of the game. By considering factors such as player skill, past performance, matchup, and odds, bettors can make informed decisions when placing bets on home run props in baseball games.
