Last scored matchup
Dylan isn't on today's slate. He was last scored 11 days ago, away at New York Yankees on Sunday, September 27, 2026, where he landed on walks (64.9/100), singles (54.6/100), hits (49.6/100). This page refreshes with new projections as soon as he's back in a lineup.
He's in a cold stretch
Dylan is 4-for-39 (.103) across his last 10 games, down from .239 on the season. Slumps this size are mostly noise at this sample — 39 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
Dylan has 9 home runs and 27 extra-base hits in 297 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 left-handed bat
Dylan hits from the left side, and that's the first thing the model looks at. Left-handed hitters see right-handed pitching most nights, which is the favourable side — so a lefty bat's baseline is set against righties, and drawing a left-handed starter is a genuine downgrade rather than a rounding error. When you see his score fall on a day he's still in the lineup, an opposing lefty is usually why. Handedness also shapes the park read: pull-side geometry matters more for a left-handed swing than the raw park factor suggests.
Floor and ceiling
Dylan has recorded at least one hit in 52 of 90 games he's batted in — 58% — with 17 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
Dylan is hitting .243 at home (33-for-136) and .236 on the road (38-for-161) 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.
How our calls on Dylan have graded
In the 9 games where we ranked Dylan a top-20 hitter matchup, he recorded a hit 7 times — 78%. That's a thin sample and we'd treat it as such. Every one of those calls was graded against the real box score, misses included.
Where he lands across our boards
Dylan was scored on 12 boards in that matchup, and the spread is the interesting part: walks graded 64.9/100 while triples came in at 11.8/100. 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
Dylan'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.
