How often they get a hit
AVGBatting average
Hits divided by official at-bats: the oldest, simplest measure of a hitter making contact that lands.
Higher is betterHow often they reach base
OBPOn-base percentage
Counts walks and hit-by-pitch on top of hits, so it rewards the patient hitter who keeps the line moving.
Higher is betterHow much damage per at-bat
SLGSlugging percentage
Weighs extra-base hits more than singles, so a doubles-and-homers bat scores far higher than a slap hitter.
Higher is betterReaching base plus power
OPSOn-base plus slugging
Adds on-base and slugging into one quick read of total offensive value: the fastest gut check on a hitter.
Higher is betterRuns a pitcher gives up
ERAEarned run average
Earned runs allowed per nine innings, so it scales every pitcher to the same length of outing.
Lower is betterTraffic a pitcher allows
WHIPWalks and hits per inning pitched
Counts the base-runners a pitcher lets on per inning: a clean read of how often they pitch out of trouble.
Lower is betterStrikeouts vs. walks
K/BBStrikeout-to-walk ratio
How many batters a pitcher strikes out for each one they walk: a plain measure of command.
Higher is betterPitching, defense set aside
FIPFielding independent pitching
Estimates a pitcher’s value from only what they control (strikeouts, walks, and home runs) and ignores how the defense played behind them. It is built to read on the same scale as ERA.
Lower is betterThe receipt is the whole point. Here is where every number comes from, how its freshness is decided, and the rules this front door will not break.

Freshness is computed from each response’s real timestamp in CT, never asserted. A panel reads fresh inside its window, warming past it, and staleat twice the window. No timestamp means an honest “unknown,” not a guess.
