HAWGBEAT'S PICKS​

Each story, HawgBeat will list a few picks that look favorable based on trends and statistics throughout the season.

Jace Bohrofen to have over 0.5 home runs (+450)​

The home run leader among active Razorbacks, Bohrofen immediately possesses the best chance to go deep against the Bulldogs.

Furthermore, eight of the Arkansas outfielder's 11 home runs have come against right-handed pitching. Mississippi State starter Cade Smith has faced 55 left-handed batters this season and surrendered five longballs.

Three games have passed since Bohrofen's last homer, so the junior may be due for another one.

Caleb Cali to have over 0.5 home runs and over 1.5 RBIs (+575)​

Speaking of guys who are due, Cali has not gone yard since April 22 in the series finale against Georgia.

Even though he is a right-handed hitter, six of Cali's seven homers this season have come against pitchers of the same handedness. If he collects No. 8 tonight, any runner on base will secure the other requirement: a second RBI.

If it's a solo shot, he should have plenty of other RBI chances hitting in the heart of the order.

Parlay Arkansas ML and LSU ML (+107)​

Taking the Arkansas money line on its does not provide enough value, but parlayed with No. 1 LSU, it looks much more enticing.

The Razorbacks is 10-2 in games in which Hagen Smith pitches. Likewise, the Tigers have only lost twice when ace Paul Skenes takes the bump, including one to Arkansas in March.
LSU has won seven straight SEC games and can easily stretch the streak to eight against a sub-.500 Auburn team.

Mississippi State, as detailed in HawgBeat's scouting report, probably does not have the pitching necessary to match Hagen Smith, so these two seem like solid choices.
