Preseason / current pace / Bayesian update
Rolling bands shrink current-season signal toward the preseason prior until the sample earns more weight.

SEAGER+ and decision components
SEAGER+ is the promoted plate-discipline index; component rows marked rebadged research are visible diagnostic context, not standalone promoted metrics.
xwOBA snapshot line
Live snapshot series; true 50/100 PA windows require PA-level logs
Swing path and decision map
Juan Soto's tools (94) outpace production (90) by 3 points. Primary finding: excessive fly-ball angle — producing popups instead of line drives. Also flagged: Passive In-Zone Approach.
Increase in-zone swing rate, especially on fastballs in favorable counts
