Our Secret Stats Weapon: Performance Score

We rank pitchers using our proprietary awRPP metric because we're stubborn nerds who think we're smarter than everyone else. But we are going to show you our Performance Score, which is a 0-100 scale where higher is better. The best pitcher gets a 100, the worst gets a 0, and everyone else is scaled proportionally. The colored progress bars let you visualize the gap between pitchers at a glance. Trust us, these scores are better than any stat you've seen on TV.
