Bold = led the league. OPS+ compares OBP and SLG with the league average (100 = average; no park adjustment). Blank GIDP/SH/SF/IBB cells: that season's source data didn't track them (PA there = AB+BB+HBP).

Value Batting

Runs above average from batting (Rbat), baserunning (Rbaser) and position (Rpos); RAA/WAA = runs/wins above average, Rrep = replacement runs, RAR = runs above replacement (see how WAR is calculated).

BAbip = batting average on balls in play; ISO = SLG − BA; HR%, SO%, BB%, XBH% are per plate appearance; X/H% = extra-base hits per hit; GB/FB and P/PA come from the sim's batted-ball and pitch counts; RC = runs created. eBA, Clutch and WIS WAR are WhatIfSports' own metrics (1886 onward).

Batting Splits

1886	vs RH Starter	4	4	4	1	1	.250	.250	.250	.500	.333

Splits come from the WhatIfSports season export (available from 1886). Traded players' splits combine all of their teams that season.

Positions listed in scorebook order (P, C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, LF, CF, RF). Ch = chances (PO+A+E); RF/9 = 9×(PO+A)/Inn; RF/G = (PO+A)/G; lgFld% and lgRF9 = league average at that position. +Plays/−Plays are the sim's good and poor defensive plays. For pitchers, SB/CS are runners stealing while he pitched.
