Best MLB RBIs Matchups — Monday, July 27, 2026
Top rbis spot: Vaughn Grissom
Vaughn Grissom (LAA) tops the board at 100, facing RHP Tatsuya Imai. The righty is driving in runs at .209 RBI/PA against righties this year — and .143 over the last two weeks, an elite bat that turns into a RBI in about 17% of his trips. And Tatsuya Imai has been stingy with runs against righties lately — .000 RBIs per batter faced. One catch: the bullpen behind him has been stingy to that side late. He's hitting in a spot worth about 4.5 trips, so the volume's there. No real history against Tatsuya Imai. It all sets up in a neutral park.

- Eugenio Suárez (CIN) (96) vs RHP Slade Cecconi: an elite bat at .169 into an arm mostly holding up against the same side (.111), due to bounce back.

Lineup watch
216 of today's hitters are still on projected lineups, drawn from each team's last game. Batting order drives the score, so these flip the moment official lineups post — usually about two hours before first pitch. Anyone who doesn't make the official card gets flagged "Not starting" and drops to the bottom.
How to read these rbis matchups
Each score (0–100) starts with the hitter's RBIs per plate appearance against the hand he's facing — weighted toward the last two weeks, then the season, then a two-year baseline. Then it layers in the bullpen, his spot in the order, and park and weather. Higher means more of it points his way. It's context, not a lock — a great spot still goes 0-for-4 sometimes, and a tough one runs into one. The edge is in stacking the odds, and since we grade every board, you can see how often the top of the list delivers.
