Reading note
Descriptive only, from a single 2025 Statcast pull (>=300 pitches-faced floor). Contact numbers are over the 784 batted balls only, not the full 2,833 pitches, and estimated wOBA on contact is a batted-ball model -- it says nothing about walks, strikeouts, or actual results. No swing/miss or launch-angle column in this pull, so no whiff rate or barrel profile. Batter-side only (his pitching is not in this card). Not park- or opponent-adjusted; not a prediction.
