Plus: The Martian homers in first MLB at-bat
Think of an MLB star's Baseball Savant page as the back of a Statcast baseball card.
At the very top of that Baseball Savant page is a snapshot of how the player is performing in all of the key Statcast stats, presented by Google Cloud, and how he stacks up to the rest of the Major Leagues. And now that page is newly redesigned to give you a more complete picture for every big leaguer.
When you search for a player on Baseball Savant, what you see front-and-center is his MLB percentile rankings in various Statcast metrics. We've added a bunch of new categories for both hitters and pitchers, including sections for a player's overall value, and the slider bars displaying the rankings for each Statcast metric also have a new look that makes it easier to see a player's stats and understand the type of player he is.
See for yourself. Here are 11 players with the most interesting Statcast pages right now. |
