Up to Oct 6, 2026, this page covers 857 games.

How to read this table

  • The window is the last ten games each batter appeared in.
  • Batters with fewer than 25 plate appearances in those ten games are not listed.
  • OPS = on-base percentage + slugging percentage

How to read the figures on this page

The last ten games are counted for each batter. For a batter who does not appear every day, the ten most recent games in which he took a plate appearance are added up. It is not a window of dates, so the span of the ten games differs from batter to batter.

OPS is on-base percentage plus slugging.

The difference chart takes the ten-game OPS and subtracts the season OPS. To the right of 0 are the batters above their season figure and to the left those below it. Ten games is a small sample, so the larger the difference the wider the room to move back.
