Breakdown Yainer Diaz

    Overview

  • Experts rank this player at 5th among C's. Based on his stats from the past 60 days, he is currently ranked 36th.
  • The current leader among C's is Ivan Herrera
  • He should be doing much better than this. You might be able to him now for a discount.
  • In the past two weeks he has had an awful lot of time off. Either he isn't an every day player or he is coming back from an injury of some sort. I suggest checking out his news page to get a closer look.
  • Trending Batting Stats

  • Ranked 184th in BABIP (Batting Average on Balls In Play) with 0.143
  • Ranked 191st in batting average with 0.111
  • Not overly impressive with on base percentage currently ranked 193rd with 0.158
  • Not too impressive with slugging percentage currently ranked 200th with 0.111

  • Not too impressive and is currently ranked 360th in RBI with 1
  • Not too impressive and is currently ranked 535th in runs scored with 0
  • On second thought, he hasn't played in quite enough games for me to calculate a reliable analysis for you. Expect his rating to evolve over the next few days.
  • At this point in the season his numbers compared to last years: AVG: -0.351, OBP: -0.359, HRs: -2, RBI: -3, Runs: -4, Wlks: -2, Stls: EVEN,
  • The season is still young, expect things to change quite a bit.
