Yainer Diaz Total Hits Props • Houston
Minute Maid Park profiles as the #21 venue in Major League Baseball for right-handed base hits, via the leading projection system (THE BAT). Built just 20 feet above sea level, Minute Maid Park has one of the lowest elevations among all major league stadiums, which tends to lead to worse offense. The Minute Maid Park roof figures to be closed today, making conditions in this contest -7° colder than the average outdoor game of all games on the slate — favorable for pitching. Yainer Diaz has a 79th percentile opposite-field rate on his flyballs (34.4%) but may find it hard to clear baseball's 9th-deepest RF fences today. Among every team today, the strongest infield defense belongs to the Los Angeles Angels.
