What Statcast Has Changed

What the Statcast data system has produced for how baseball is understood

The System

Statcast -- the radar and optical tracking system that MLB has deployed in every park since 2015 and that measures the specific exit velocity, launch angle, spin rate, route efficiency, and the specific biomechanical metrics that the system captures for every play -- has produced the specific revolution in baseball measurement that has changed what the sport knows about itself.

The Revolution

The specific measurements that Statcast has enabled: the exit velocity that measures the specific quality of contact rather than just the result; the sprint speed that measures the specific athleticism of position players rather than just the stolen base count; and the pitch movement profile that measures the specific deception that the pitcher creates rather than just the velocity.
