Wednesday's slate features a mixed set of weather conditions with temperatures ranging from high 50s to high 80s. Some of the warmest weather is in Atlanta where hot 88° temps are paired with low air pressure - two factors which are better for fly ball distance.

Carry distance also improves with higher humidity levels, which is accompanying some possible storms on Wednesday. Venues flagged for possible delay include CIN, PHI, BAL, CLE, and NYY. The Rogers Centre roof is unofficially expected to be closed due to a chance of rain in Toronto.

The wind is back at Sutter Health Park this evening following a rare day with minimal wind. The minor league venue is rated better for offense than Tuesday as most of its home-run appeal has come from its receptiveness to the usual out-blowing wind. Although it's only 8 mph, the model still considers it impactful given SHP's open-air style.

A 10 mph wind is blowing in from left at Wrigley Field this evening. Wrigley is the most receptive venue in MLB and highly responsive to which direction the wind is blowing. It's also going to be a cool 64° for Mets / Cubs this evening, making Wrigley the most pitcher-friendly environment on Wednesday's slate.

The small outfields in Cincinnati and Philadelphia are some of the best suited for home runs today. Although both venues are flagged for possible delay, the weather conditions at each stadium are good for fly ball distance.
