Today's matchup
Today it's San Francisco Giants for Connor, at home. He shows up on 12 boards — singles (37.9/100, #81), runs (34.3/100, #86), total bases (30.8/100, #108), h+r+rbi (29.7/100, #99). We've got him at 0.6 on the singles board. The model doesn't love the spot — the numbers are below. Open any board row for the full breakdown of what's driving it.
Recent form
Connor is 6-for-30 (.200) over his last 10 games, in line with his .233 season line. No hot streak to fade, no slump to buy — the matchup is doing the work in his score, which is the normal case. The full game log is below.
What kind of hitter he is
Connor strikes out a lot — 45 strikeouts in 159 at-bats, roughly 28%. That cuts both ways in our numbers. It drags his floor on the hits board, since he needs contact to get there. But it barely dents the power boards, where one swing settles it — he's got 3 homers. Against a high-strikeout arm his score will fall further than a contact hitter's would.
He's a right-handed bat
Connor 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
Connor has recorded at least one hit in 31 of 54 games he's batted in — 57% — with 6 multi-hit games among them. That's a boom-or-bust profile. He'll carry a game outright and then go quiet for three, so his hits-board score tends to sit below hitters with worse power and better contact.
Home and away
Connor is hitting .208 at home (15-for-72) and .253 on the road (22-for-87) 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.
His best game in the log
Connor's biggest night was Sunday, August 16, 2026 at PIT — 2-for-3 with 1 homer, 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.
No graded record on him yet
We haven't ranked Connor a top-20 hitter matchup often enough this season to have a record worth publishing — 1 time so far. He's appeared in 60 graded games, so the log below is real; there just isn't a track record on our calls to show. It'll build here if the matchups start landing his way.
Where he lands across our boards
Connor was scored on 12 boards in that matchup, and the spread is the interesting part: singles graded 37.9/100 while stolen bases came in at 3.2/100. 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
Connor's score rates the spot in front of him, not the name on the jersey. It weighs his rates against the kind of arm he's facing — handedness matters a lot — set against what that pitcher and his bullpen give up, then adjusts for expected playing time, park, weather, and recent form, normalized 0–100 across the slate. The weighting is proprietary and re-tuned weekly; the grading is public, and that's the half that proves anything.
What we'd flag
Books don't price every player — coverage tops out around 87% even for confirmed starters, so "no line" here usually means no book posted one rather than a gap in our data. Lineups change late, and an afternoon projection can be stale by first pitch. And the model is tuned across hundreds of graded outcomes, so one game tells you nothing about whether it's working. For Connor specifically, we don't have a meaningful graded record on him yet.
