For this season's rating, S is the top and G the lowest; within a letter, + ranks above −. Players with little playing time show —. The last 3 seasons column rates that span. How to read the ratings

How to read this table

Each row is one player, with two rating columns: this season on the left and the recent seasons on the right. The number columns are batting average and home runs for batters, and earned run average plus one role-specific column for pitchers.

Opening the detailed stats below the table shows the raw numbers side by side, such as games and runs batted in. How to read the ratings is gathered on the player data hub.

Frequently asked questions

Why do some players show a dash instead of a rating?

Those players have not yet reached 100 plate appearances this season (30 innings pitched for pitchers), or do not reach the line even when the most recent seasons are combined. Players on a development contract do not receive a rating either. Players with little playing time are not listed in the table.
