Last scored matchup
Wilyer 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 doubles (100/100), hits (75.2/100), h+r+rbi (63.7/100). This page refreshes with new projections as soon as he's back in a lineup.
He's in a cold stretch
Wilyer is 5-for-37 (.135) across his last 10 games, down from .248 on the season. Slumps this size are mostly noise at this sample — 37 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
Wilyer has 24 home runs and 66 extra-base hits in 604 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
Wilyer 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
Wilyer has recorded at least one hit in 99 of 159 games he's batted in — 62% — with 42 multi-hit games among them. That's about average — most regulars land somewhere near it.
Home and away
Wilyer is hitting .259 at home (78-for-301) and .238 on the road (72-for-303) 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
Wilyer's biggest night was Wednesday, September 23, 2026 against CLE — 2-for-4. 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 Wilyer have graded
We've ranked Wilyer a top-20 hitter matchup 28 times this season. He got a hit in 21 of them — 75%. 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
Wilyer was scored on 12 boards in that matchup, and the spread is the interesting part: doubles graded 100/100 while stolen bases came in at 16.1/100. 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
Wilyer'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.
