Díaz builds on '25 breakout … Yandy Díaz (DH, TAM) is out to prove his doubters wrong. Not only is he repeating last year's .300-25 HR season, but he's also improving upon it, hitting .325 with 12 HRs. At 34, do the underlying skills support this level of production?
| Year | PA | HR | BA | xBA | BB% | ct% | HctX | PX/xPX | FB% | HR/F | Brl% | h% |
| 2023 | 600 | 22 | .330 | .281 | 10 | 82 | 142 | 109/95 | 28 | 17% | 9.5 | 36 |
| 2024 | 621 | 14 | .281 | .251 | 8 | 83 | 133 | 82/76 | 27 | 10% | 7.7 | 31 |
| 2025 | 651 | 25 | .300 | .286 | 9 | 84 | 122 | 101/83 | 27 | 18% | 8.3 | 32 |
| 2026 | 267 | 12 | .331 | .289 | 9 | 86 | 131 | 111/111 | 33 | 17% | 9.0 | 34 |
The indicators say yes:
- Díaz continues to improve an already elite ct%. And HctX remains well above league-average.
- h% is very much in line with levels from the past three seasons, which tells us he should continue to outhit an excellent xBA.
- We know Díaz hits the ball...
