Hitting from the same side that Andre Pallante throws from, Ramon Laureano has a tough challenge in today's matchup.
Alec Burleson has an 80th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (34.3%) but may find it hard to clear baseball's 6th-deepest LF fences in today's game.
Hitters such as Nolan Arenado with extreme flyball tendencies are usually more effective when facing pitchers like Bryce Elder who skew towards the groundball end of the spectrum. Nolan Arenado will hold the home field advantage today, which figures to boost all of his stats.

The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Willson Contreras in the 96th percentile when assessing his overall offensive skill. Willson Contreras is projected to hit 3rd in the lineup today. Willson Contreras hits many of his flyballs to center field (38.5% — 86th percentile) and is a great match for the park considering he'll be hitting towards the game's 7th-shallowest CF fences in today's game.

Andre Pallante will hold the platoon advantage over Orlando Arcia today.
The leading projection system (THE BAT X) projects Brendan Donovan in the 92nd percentile when assessing his batting average ability.
