Opposing Analysis

The Pirates' pitching staff has had its ups and downs this season. Yilber Diaz, the probable starting pitcher for this game, has an ERA of 5.40 and has struggled with consistency. Diaz has given up a fair number of hits and runs in his limited innings this season, which could play to Perdomo's advantage. The Pirates' bullpen also hasn't been the strongest, ranking 26th in ERA, which further increases the chances of Perdomo getting on base and possibly scoring runs.
