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.

Pitchers

Replacement level

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.
