The big number is the league's value this season. For Hitter EB/PA and Pitcher xEB/PA it is the median qualified player. The small line beneath it names the current leader. A hitter needs 100 plate appearances to lead BB% or K%, and 50 batted balls to lead Hard-hit%. The ▲ or ▼ chip compares this season with the average of the earlier full seasons named beside it. So ▲ on a ↓ better stat like K% means the league strikes out more than it used to. 2 metrics have no single leader in the data, and read “league rate” instead.

▸How to read these strips
Each strip spreads all 30 teams across one stat this season. Each tick is a team.Hover a tick to see which team it is. Left is always the worse end and right the better one, so a strip marked (lower = better) runs its numbers downward from left to right. The dashed tick is the median team and the teal tick is the best. For Hitter EB/PA and Pitcher xEB/PA, a team's tick is its median hitter with 50 or more plate appearances or its median pitcher with 100 or more batters faced.

▸How to read the shape strips
Each solid tick is one team this season, and each strip runs from the lowest rate on the left to the highest on the right. FB% is the share of batted balls hit as fly balls, GB% the share hit on the ground, and Pull% the share hit to the batter's pull side. These describe how a team hits the ball, not how well, so neither end is better. The dashed tick is the league median.
