How to read this chart

The dot is the model's best estimate. The bar around it is the middle 50% of where that estimate could land — a short bar means a lot of evidence, a long one means the sample is still thin.
Where two players' bars overlap, the model cannot honestly separate them, however far apart their rank numbers are.
The tinted halves split at the dashed league line: the green side is better than league average for this metric, the red side worse.
The dashed average and the teal league-best line are the whole league, not just the players listed here.

BB% vs HR%

League best:BB% Will Wagner (22.2%)HR% Eduardo Valencia (9.5%)

Dot size = K% (bigger = more strikeouts).

How to read this chart

Each face is one player on this roster: BB% across the bottom, HR% up the side, both as a share of the plate appearances he took.
The dashed lines are the average across every qualified player in the league, not just this roster — so a corner means better or worse than the league, not better or worse than a teammate.
The league best is named above the chart rather than drawn on it. Stretching the axes out to reach it would squeeze this roster into a corner and pile the faces on top of each other, and picking a player out is what this chart is for.

How to read this chart

Every hitter's bat and every pitcher's arm, both measured against a freely-available replacement. The tag marks the role (Hitter / Starter / Reliever).
Modeled (shrunk) rates, like the boards above — a two-way player appears once for his bat and once for his arm.
