MLB DFS Weather Tuesday May 3rd

 

 

 

Hopefully this scene will not have to be repeated tonight

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 Current radar (6:50 PM): 

 

  ****UPDATE: Most of the rain looks like it will pass by south of BALTIMORE******

 

 

 

Brief Summary (6:50 PM):

NYY at BLT will see a light to perhaps moderate band of steady rain push through the region.

7 PM:

Most of the rain passes by to the south.

But we have to watch a bit more rain moving in later on:

10 PM:

 VERY LOW CHANCE OF PPD/MODERATE CHANCE OF AN IN-GAME DELAY AFTER 9:30

All in all, I expect them to be able to play tonight in BLT.

This same batch of rain will have its eye on ATL at NYM as well but should not move into the Big Apple until after they finish the game. EXTREMELY LOW CHANCE OF PPD/DELAY

CHC at PIT and SF at CIN will see a scattering of light showers that should not impact the game. EXTREMELY LOW CHANCE OF PPD/DELAY  

7 PM simulated radar of the PIT area showing the scattering of showers expected

Rain will be poised to move in the Windy City for BOS at CHW but should wait until after 11 PM EDT to do so. Before that time, there will be a scattering of  showers around the region that will tend to dry up as we go through the evening.   EXTREMELY LOW CHANCE OF PPD/LOW CHANCE OF A DELAYED START OR IN-GAME DELAY

8 PM simulated radar

Good Hitting Environment:

No ballparks standout as favorable to the hitter due to the weather conditions.

 

Poor Hitting Environments:

DET at CLE will feature both cool temperatures and dry air causing high air density.

ATL at NYM will see a light wind blowing in and cool temperatures.


In the scales used, a 10 represents a sizeable advantage for the hitter and 1 is the same for the pitcher
