Question 1

What does the Hitter vs Pitcher dashboard show?

Accepted Answer

Every MLB game for today with the full starting lineup lined up against the opposing starting pitcher, including each batter's career plate appearances, batting average, on-base percentage, slugging, and home runs against that specific pitcher. Batters without confirmed lineup spots are flagged until the official lineup drops.

Question 2

How are career H2H stats calculated?

Accepted Answer

Career stats aggregate every plate appearance between the batter and pitcher across all seasons from the MLB Stats API. Sample sizes under 10 PA are shown but flagged — small samples are noisy, so the dashboard highlights matchups with 15+ PA for reliable trend signals.

Question 3

How do I use Hitter vs Pitcher data for prop betting?

Accepted Answer

Look for batters with 15+ career PA against the pitcher plus a career OPS of .900 or higher — these are strong spots for hits, total bases, and HR props. Also filter by matchups where the pitcher has allowed multiple HRs to the batter historically. Combine H2H stats with platoon advantage (L/R vs R/L pitcher) for the strongest signals.

Question 4

How often is this data updated?

Accepted Answer

Lineups update throughout the day as teams announce them (typically 2-4 hours before first pitch). Career H2H stats update after every game night. Starting pitcher probables refresh daily from the MLB Stats API.
