Arizona @ Colorado props

This year, Randal Grichuk has been replaced by a pinch-hitter in 46% of his appearances when starting against left-handed pitcher. Out of all the teams in action today, the 5th-strongest infield defense belongs to the Colorado Rockies. Playing on the road generally lessens batter stats across the board due to the lack of home field advantage, which figures to be the case for Randal Grichuk in today's game.

The Arizona Diamondbacks infield defense profiles as the 4th-best among all the teams playing today. In the last week, Brenton Doyle's Barrel% has experienced a negative regression, plummeting from his seasonal rate of 11% down to 4.5%.

As it relates to plate discipline, Brenton Doyle's skill is quite poor, putting up a 3.62 K/BB rate this year while grading out in in the 24th percentile.
