The field is set for the 2024 Home Run Derby at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas!
Rangers right fielder Adolis Garcia and Dodgers center fielder Teoscar Hernandez are the final two players to be named to the eight-player field. They join New York Mets' Pete Alonso, Atlanta's Marcell Ozuna, Kansas City's Bobby Witt Jr, Cleveland's Jose Ramirez, Baltimore's Gunnar Henderson and Philadelphia's Alec Bohm.
Alonso, Ramirez and Garcia have all competed in the Derby before while the remaining players will make their Derby debut.
In addition to new faces, there are a few new rules to this year's competition that bettors should be aware of before wagering on the event.
This year's Home Run Derby will feature several new rule changes aimed at improving the competition by addressing concerns about player exhaustion and reducing the potential risk of injury.
With the top four home run hitters advancing from the first round based on total home runs, it's important to focus on players who are known for consistent power-hitting rather than just explosive bursts.
The new three-minute limit or 40-pitch cap (whichever comes first) in the first two rounds will favor batters who can maintain a steady pace, so it's important to target a player that you believe has the most stamina.
Lastly, with additional outs awarded in the bonus round for home runs of 425+ feet, bettors should look at players with a history of hitting long home runs, being this will give them an added advantage.
