Yainer Diaz Projections | Platoon Splits (RHP vs LHP)

Yainer Diaz projected to 150 Games vs RHP and LHP with 12 team mixed fantasy value. This helps identify a player's platoon value for fantasy baseball based on pitcher handedness. These projections - combining Steamer rates and Razzball projected PA/Game and R/RBI - are a MUCH better indicator of a hitter's platoon splits than in-season stats since it involves multiple years of data and has been properly regressed to league averages. Since games are neutralized across players, values for everyday players may look smaller than for preseason/season to date/rest of season where they benefit from playing time advantages vs other players. In general, left-handed hitters have larger platoon splits.

Yainer Diaz Fantasy Outlook For 2026

Grey Albright Player Summary
I’m writing this in November, so it might change by the time you read it (though, I doubt it changes that much), and Yainer’s ADP is 120 in two-catcher leagues and Ben Rice is at 75. Yainer is a 22/2/.260 hitter and Ben Rice is a 22/2/.240 hitter. Rice has better lineup and park, but Yainer should hit for a higher average. That’s what happens when people draft too early. ADP gets baked in when people are drafting without a full picture and then months later people assume the ADP makes sense, when it never really does. (For what it’s Cronenworth, Yainer’s ADP since January 1st is 110 and Rice is 46. So, it makes even less sense now. Steamer’s rankings has them: Rice at 94 and Yainer at 127, which makes more sense.)
