D-backs
2026Snapshot
The offense is elite on contact and weak on power. The pitching is elite on quiet contact and bottom-tier on strikeouts.
They score 4.6 runs a game and allow 4.5, against a league average of 4.5. The offense is the bigger reason.
The simulator says their game-by-game play deserved 81.6 wins. They have 86.
Team identity
Offense style
This lineup pulls the ball a lot and rarely barrels the ball.
These strips compare how this lineup hits the ball with the other 29 teams. Pull rate and fly-ball rate are a style, not a skill, but a higher barrel rate is better.
Hitters
This lineup is star-led. Its top 3 hitters account for +521 bases above replacement, and the other 18 combine for +635.

How to read this chart
- The dot is the simulator's best estimate. The bar around it covers the middle 50% of where that estimate could land. A short bar means a lot of evidence, and a long one means the sample is still thin.
- Where two players' bars overlap, the simulator cannot honestly separate them, however far apart their ranks are.
- The tinted halves split at the dashed league median, with the better side green and the worse side red.
- The dashed median and the teal league-best line cover the whole league, not just these players.

BB% vs HR%
League best:BB% Davis Schneider (18.6%)HR% Hunter Goodman (7.1%)
A bigger dot means more strikeouts, which is worse for a hitter.
How to read this chart
- Each face is one player on this roster, with BB% across the bottom and HR% up the side, both as a share of the plate appearances he took.
- Higher is better on both, so the best hitters sit top-right.
- The dashed lines are the league-wide rates this season, so a corner means better or worse than the league, not than a teammate.
- Tap a headshot to open the player.Hover a headshot for the player.
- The league best is named above the chart, among hitters with 50 or more plate appearances. More on the About page
2 more hitters have fewer than 25 plate appearances, too few to rank:
Pitchers
This staff is star-led. Its top 3 pitchers account for +135 bases above replacement, and the other 18 combine for +69.

- Lower is better on both, so the best pitchers sit bottom-left.
- The dashed lines are the league-wide rates this season, so a corner means better or worse than the league, not than a teammate.

- The league best is named above the chart, among pitchers with 100 or more batters faced. More on the About page

Season value
Who carried the team
Bars to the right helped the team more than a replacement player would have.
How to read this chart
- Each bar is one hitter's bat or one pitcher's arm, measured in bases above or below a freely available replacement player. Longer to the right is better. The tag marks the role: Hitter, Starter or Reliever.
- The rates behind each bar are the simulator's estimates, the same ones the rankings above use, and a two-way player appears once for his bat and once for his arm.
- The total adds up the whole roster, while this board shows the 10 biggest gains and the 6 biggest drags. Click a name for his page.
