What is this?
Batters grouped by swing shape — bat speed and swing length for power, attack angle and path tilt for loft — from Statcast bat tracking.
The number beside each metric is the gap to league average across the 610 batters with enough tracked swings to measure.

Swing & contact
Bat speed, barrel rate, exit velocity and chase rate over the last 30 games against this player's own last 100, so it reads as “is he himself right now” rather than “is he good”.
Flagged only when it has moved further than three quarters of hitters do. Movement in either direction counts.
Descriptive — the model does not use it.

How Samad Taylor handles each pitch
Reading these bars
Every pitch type this batter has faced from that hand, ordered by how often he sees it.
The bar is his performance against it; the dotted line is his own average from that hand. Past the line he handles it better than most (red), short of it the pitcher has the edge (blue).
Pitches with fewer than 10 balls in play are left out.

One row per plate appearance, newest first. Strikeouts and walks included.
Expected stats say what a batted ball was worth given how hard and at what angle it was hit, whether or not it found a glove.
xBA is blank on strikeouts and walks — there is no batted ball to judge. xwOBA counts them.
