Minnesota Twins Insights

  Explain: xBA uses highly advanced Statcast data to measure a player’s batting average ability more accurately than actual batting average can.
• Victor Caratini – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-180/+140)
  Victor Caratini hits a lot of his flyballs to center field (38.6% — 88th percentile) and will be challenged by MLB’s 10th-deepest CF fences in today’s matchup.
