Brian McCann vs. Alex Sanabia — Matchup Analysis
Alex Sanabia has kept McCann in check relative to their career standard. With only 8 plate appearances this is early evidence, but it leans Sanabia. An OPS of 0.821 is a solid mark overall, but it sits 4% below where McCann typically operates, reflecting a pitcher making a great hitter work harder than usual. Even with McCann striking out less often than usual, once every 8 PA versus a career rate of once every 6.5 PA, the overall production numbers still favor Sanabia. Slight edge: Sanabia.
