Statcast Glossary

Exit Velocity (EV)

How fast, in miles per hour, a ball was hit by a batter.

Launch Angle (LA)

How high/low, in degrees, a ball was hit by a batter.

Barrels

A batted ball with the perfect combination of exit velocity and launch angle

Hard Hit

Statcast defines a 'hard-hit ball' as one hit with an exit velocity of 95 mph or higher.

Sweet Spot

A batted-ball event with a launch angle between eight and 32 degrees.

Batted Ball Event (BBE)

A Batted Ball Event represents any batted ball that produces a result.

Pitch Velocity

How hard, in miles per hour, a pitch is thrown.

Pitch Movement

The movement of a pitch is defined in inches, both in raw numbers and as a measurement against average.

Active Spin

Statcast refers to the spin that contributes to movement as Active Spin.

Spin Rate

How much spin, in revolutions per minute, a pitch was thrown with.

Extension

How far off the mound, in feet, a pitcher releases the pitch.

Pop Time

How quickly, in seconds, a catcher can get the ball out of his glove and to the base on a stolen base or pickoff attempt.

Arm Strength

How hard, in miles per hour, a fielder throws the ball.

Lead Distance

How far, in feet, a runner is ranging off the bag at the time of a pitcher's first movement or pitch release.

Jump

Jump is a Statcast metric that shows which players have the fastest reactions and most direct routes in the outfield.

Outs Above Average (OAA)

A range-based metric of skill that shows how many outs a player has saved over his peers.

Fielding Run Value

Statcast's overall metric for capturing a player’s measurable defensive performance onto a run-based scale, converting various metrics like OAA, blocking, framing, etc.

Catch Probability

The likelihood, in percent, that an outfielder will be able to make a catch on an individual batted ball.

Expected Batting Average (xBA)

xBA measures the likelihood that a batted ball will become a hit.

Expected Weighted On-base Average (xwOBA)

xwOBA is formulated using exit velocity, launch angle and, on certain types of batted balls, Sprint Speed.

Expected Earned Run Avg (xERA)

xERA is a simple 1:1 translation of xwOBA, converted to the ERA scale.

Sprint Speed

A measurement of a player's top running speed, expressed in "feet per second in a player's fastest one-second window."

Bolt

A Bolt is any run where the Sprint Speed (defined as "feet per second in a player's fastest one-second window") of the runner is at least 30 ft/sec.

EV50

For a batter, EV50 is an average of the hardest 50% of his batted balls. For a pitcher it is the average of his softest 50% of batted balls allowed.

Adjusted EV

Adjusted EV averages the maximum of 88 and the actual exit velocity of each batted ball event.

Blocks Above Average

A Statcast metric designed to express the demonstrated skill of catchers at preventing wild pitches or passed balls compared to their peers.
