Tim Tawa Total Hits Props • Arizona

The #4 stadium in the game for boosting base hits to right-handed batters, via the leading projection system (THE BAT), is Truist Park. Truist Park sits at the 3rd-highest altitude among all major league parks. High elevation usually leads (as a rule of thumb) to higher offensive output. This game is predicted to have the 3rd-most humid conditions on the slate (80%); there is a small but significant connection with increased offense (and decreased whiffs) when the weather is humid. Tim Tawa will have the benefit of the platoon advantage against Chris Sale today... and even more favorably, Sale has a large platoon split. Tim Tawa is remarkably toolsy, placing in the 78th percentile in Sprint Speed at 28.26 ft/sec this year.
