Best MLB Triples Matchups — Wednesday, July 8, 2026
Top triples spot: Masyn Winn
Masyn Winn (STL) tops the board at 100, facing LHP Kyle Harrison. The righty is running the bases at — 3B/PA against lefties this year, a solid bat that turns into a triple in about 0% of his trips. And Kyle Harrison has been thin against lefties lately. The bullpen behind him is roughly average to that side. He's hitting in a spot worth about 4.7 trips, so the volume's there. He's just .000 in 2 career PA against Kyle Harrison, but that's a tiny sample and the matchup says regression. It all sets up in a neutral park, weather helping.

How to read these triples matchups
Each score (0–100) starts with the hitter's triples 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.
