Where he does damage, and where to pitch him
Does the most damage middle-in (+1.8 vs. league per 100; 0.8 standard errors on 75 pitches, inside the noise for the best of nine cells).
Weakest up and in (−2.6), but only 1.2 standard errors from average on 70 pitches: no in-zone spot to attack yet.
Runs per 100 pitches vs. an average RHB: better · worse. Catcher’s view · 1,628 pitches · faded cells are within one standard error of average. A spot is called only when it is farther from average than the best or worst of nine average cells gets 95% of the time (set from the league’s own pitches: about 3 standard errors above, 2 below).

Fielding
2027 rating at every position he can play · OAA by position · range by direction · tools. Same engine as the Fielding Lab and the Winter Plan.
| Season | Pos | OAA | Range | Arm, DP | Runs | Batters |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 2B | −5 | −3 | +1.3 | −1.7 | 2,612 |
| 2025 | 2B | −5 | −4 | 0.0 | −4.0 | 4,849 |
| 2024 | 2B | −5 | −3 | −2.5 | −5.5 | 5,664 |
| 2023 | 2B | −4 | −3 | +0.8 | −2.2 | 5,330 |
Runs = range plus his arm and double-play runs spread over his positions by outs (Fielding Run Value, from 2023): what the rating counts.
At 2B in 2026, the biggest loss came toward 1B line (−5 outs): a coaching target.
Tools (percentile; arm among 2Bs)| Season | Zone | Balls | Outs vs. exp. |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2026 | 2B | 257 | +5.3 |
| 2025 | 2B | 438 | −13.2 |
| 2024 | 2B | 508 | −5.9 |
The zone rating counts every ball hit to his part of the field while he played there, his club’s positioning included; Savant OAA uses his actual starting spot and is the better individual grade. They agree best in the outfield. See the model card.
