MLB Park Factors 2026

How park factors affect DFS

A 110 runs park factor means the venue produces roughly 10% more runs than league average over a multi-year sample. For DraftKings MLB DFS that translates to:

  • Higher hitter ceilings at Coors, Fenway, Great American, and Camden Yards.
  • Cheaper hitter salaries relative to projection at suppressed parks like Petco, Oracle, and T-Mobile.
  • Bigger pitcher edges (and bigger SP fades) at extreme parks in either direction.

Frequently asked

What is a park factor in MLB?

A park factor measures how much a ballpark inflates or suppresses run scoring compared to a neutral park. 100 is league average. Above 100 favors hitters; below 100 favors pitchers.

Which MLB park is the most hitter-friendly?

Coors Field in Denver is the most hitter-friendly park in MLB by a wide margin. The altitude reduces air density, which lets fly balls carry farther and breaking pitches move less.

Which MLB park is the most pitcher-friendly?

Petco Park in San Diego consistently ranks as the most pitcher-friendly park in MLB, with marine air, deep gaps, and historically suppressed home-run rates.

How does Diamond DFS use park factors?

Park factors are one input into the Diamond DFS projection engine. Hitter projections at hitter-friendly parks (Coors, Fenway, Great American) are boosted, and pitcher projections are reduced. The opposite is true at pitcher-friendly parks like Petco, Oracle, and T-Mobile.
