- 871 batted balls on 2,233 pitches: very little of his plate time went unconverted.
- Pitchers stayed out of the zone at a 46.4 percent rate and he swung anyway.
- Estimated wOBA on contact of .356 at 84.1 mph average exit velocity.
Reading note
Descriptive only, from a single 2025 Statcast pull (pitches_faced_2025>=300 floor, 485 of 671 batters). The contact numbers -- exit velocity and estimated wOBA on contact -- cover the batted balls only, not every pitch seen, and estimated wOBA on contact is a batted-ball model: it says nothing about walks, strikeouts, or actual results. This pull carries no swing/miss or launch-angle column, so there is no whiff rate and no barrel profile here. Not park-, role-, or opponent-adjusted, and not a prediction. The contact-per-pitch comparison is scoped to the hitters with insight files in this set, and the ratio is computed from two manifest fields, not read from one.
