| WAR: Wins above replacement — wins the player added over a freely available fill-in. | RC: Runs created — an estimate of how many runs the batter's hitting produced. | RC/27: Runs a lineup of this batter would score in a full game of 27 outs. | ISOP: Isolated power: slugging minus batting average, so only extra bases count. | SECA: Secondary average: bases from walks, steals and extra-base hits, per at-bat. | BB/K: Walks for every strikeout, a measure of plate discipline. | AB/HR: At-bats per home run — lower means more power. | GO/FO: Ground-ball outs for every fly-ball out. | ||
