Too few plate appearances to grade

Ryan Mountcastle has 15 plate appearances this season. A rate built on that few swings wildly on a single result, so this page shows no grade and no comparison to the league average or the league best — there is nothing here those numbers could honestly be put next to.

A grade needs 25 plate appearances. League averages and percentiles are measured over hitters with at least 50 plate appearances. What follows is what actually happened, with no grade attached to it.

How to read this chart
Dot color is estimated bases (EB) — what the contact was worth, regardless of what the defense did with it. So a dark hollow ring in the outfield is a crushed ball that got caught. Tap or hover a dot or a row to link the two, and use the ▶ links to watch a play on Baseball Savant.
