Last scored matchup
Ceddanne isn't on today's slate. He was last scored 8 days ago, away at New York Yankees on Wednesday, September 30, 2026, where he landed on singles (54.8/100), hits (51/100), doubles (49.7/100). This page refreshes with new projections as soon as he's back in a lineup.
He's in a cold stretch
Ceddanne is 5-for-31 (.161) across his last 10 games, down from .278 on the season. Slumps this size are mostly noise at this sample — 31 at-bats is a fortnight, not a trend — and the model treats it that way, discounting the cold run rather than writing him off. If the matchup underneath is good, he'll still grade well here. That's a feature, and sometimes it's wrong.
What kind of hitter he is
Ceddanne has 16 home runs and 51 extra-base hits in 550 at-bats this season. That profile is why he grades better on the total-bases and home-run boards than his batting average alone would suggest — those boards reward damage, not just contact. Park and weather matter more for a hitter like him too, and both feed the score.
He's a right-handed bat
Ceddanne hits from the right side, so the platoon math runs the other way from a lefty's. Right-handed bats face right-handed pitching most of the time, meaning his baseline is built against the harder side and a left-handed starter is the upgrade. That's why a righty's score can jump on a day nothing else about the matchup changed. The model weighs his rates against the specific handedness he's drawing rather than a blended season number, which is where a lot of the day-to-day movement in his score comes from.
Floor and ceiling
Ceddanne has recorded at least one hit in 102 of 139 games he's batted in — 73% — with 41 multi-hit games among them. That's about average — most regulars land somewhere near it.
Home and away
Ceddanne is hitting .289 at home (80-for-277) and .267 on the road (73-for-273) across the season. There's not much in it, which is the normal case. Home-road splits get talked about far more than they hold up.
Against New York Yankees
Ceddanne is 3-for-24 (.125) against New York Yankees in our log, over 6 games. Worth knowing, worth not over-reading. 24 at-bats against one club is a tiny sample, and the model treats it as a minor input next to what that pitching staff actually allows to his handedness. Batter-versus-pitcher history is the most quoted number in baseball and one of the least predictive.
His best game in the log
Ceddanne's biggest night was Monday, August 31, 2026 against SEA — 2-for-4 with 3 driven in. That's the ceiling, not the expectation. The projection you'll see on a board is closer to his typical game than his best one, which is the whole point of projecting rather than remembering.
How our calls on Ceddanne have graded
We've ranked Ceddanne a top-20 hitter matchup 48 times this season. He got a hit in 31 of them — 65%. That's the model reading him well, and it's the number we'd point to if you asked why we keep ranking him. It's also a season-sized sample on one player, which is smaller than it sounds; don't extrapolate it into a promise about tonight.
Where he lands across our boards
Ceddanne was scored on 12 boards in that matchup, and the spread is the interesting part: singles graded 54.8/100 while stolen bases came in at 9.3/100. Same player, same game, same opposing arm — different questions. A spread that wide usually means the matchup favours one kind of outcome over another, and it's the clearest argument for reading the board that matches what you actually care about.
How the model reads him
Ceddanne gets scored the same way a backup infielder does — same inputs, same scale, no thumb on it. What he's done against arms of this handedness, what this particular pitcher and bullpen give up, his likely plate appearances, the ballpark, the conditions, his recent form. The weighting behind those is ours and gets re-tuned weekly against what actually happened. The output is public and graded, which is the only claim worth making.
What we'd flag
Read this page knowing what it can't do. It can't show you a line no book posted — coverage peaks around 87% for confirmed starters. It can't see a lineup change that happens after the projection publishes. And it can't tell you anything useful from one game, because the model is only measurable across a season-sized sample.
