Metrics Deep Dive
MLB-wide percentile rank, defensive and pitching metric summaries, pitch-type stats, and batted-ball distribution.

Pitching — MLB-wide Standing
Defensive Metrics (Basic Totals)
OAA / Fielding Runs Prevented are only published by Baseball Savant for players who clear the qualified-chances threshold (min=q). Until that threshold is met, the Statcast metrics are unavailable — they will switch on automatically as opportunities accumulate.
wRC+ Quick Cards (Park-Adjusted Proxies)
wRC+ is not exposed by the MLB Stats API, so we surface the two closest proxies for an instant read on hitting quality.
About wRC+ — How OPS+ / xwOBA compare▾
wRC+ scales overall offense to 100 = league average, adjusting for park factors and league context. Because the MLB Stats API does not expose wRC+ directly, we display the two closest proxies: OPS+ (OPS divided by the MLB average .720) and xwOBA (expected wOBA derived from exit velocity and launch angle). OPS+ 100 is league average; 130+ is roughly equivalent to an All-Star caliber wRC+ 130, and 150+ approaches MVP territory. xwOBA averages around .320; anything north of .400 marks elite contact quality.
