What are StatLine IQ Scores?

StatLine IQ is a proprietary composite rating modeled on the intelligence IQ scale. Rather than relying on a single stat like ERA or batting average, each score synthesizes multiple performance dimensions into one number — making it easy to compare players across different strengths. A score of 100 represents the league average; every 15 points is one standard deviation above or below.

StatLine Pitching-IQ weighs ERA, WHIP, strikeout rate, command (K:BB), and innings durability — a dominant ace with elite control scores far higher than ERA alone would suggest.
StatLine Hitting-IQ combines OPS, contact quality, plate discipline, and speed — rewarding complete hitters who get on base, drive the ball, and create pressure on the bases.

StatLine Pitching-IQ

Powered by StatLine Analytics
Team ERA of 4.95 is needs work (College benchmark: 2.80). WHIP 1.82 is elevated (benchmark: 1.20). Team K/BB of 0.95 is below the 3.5 standard. Top pitcher handles 43% of innings—manageable but monitor as season progresses. Limited depth with 0 pitcher(s) ready for game action—prioritize developing additional arms. 3 pitcher(s) still working on fundamentals—give them low-pressure innings to build confidence.
Lauren Schurman
98
#88 Lauren Schurman Situational
3.79 ERA 1.70 WHIP 1.2 K:BB 116.1 IP
Strengths
Strike thrower with low walk rate (0.49 BB/IP)—attacks the zone confidently
High innings (116.1 IP) shows coach's trust—reliability makes them a go-to pitcher
Solid ERA of 3.79—reliable run prevention for the team
Areas to Watch
High WHIP of 1.70—too many baserunners create constant pressure
Recommendations
First-pitch strike emphasis: aim for 65%+ first-pitch-strike rate through better early-count aggression
Contact quality work: add movement/deception to induce weaker contact—change speeds more frequently
Throwing 43% of team innings—monitor workload to prevent fatigue in postseason
Hailey Holtz
98
#10 Hailey Holtz Developmental
7.30 ERA 1.83 WHIP 0.0 K:BB 7.2 IP
Strengths
Strike thrower with low walk rate (0.28 BB/IP)—attacks the zone confidently
Areas to Watch
High WHIP of 1.83—too many baserunners create constant pressure
Very poor K/BB ratio of 0.0—walks more than they strike out
Allows 1.67 hits per inning—hitters are squaring them up frequently
Small sample size of 7.2 innings—trends may change with more work
Recommendations
Develop putaway pitch through bullpen sequencing—practice getting ahead 0-1, then finishing with secondary pitch
Contact quality work: add movement/deception to induce weaker contact—change speeds more frequently
Strikeout development: add velocity work, develop sharper breaking pitch, practice two-strike putaway approach
Jaiden Ralston
90
#45 Jaiden Ralston Situational
5.05 ERA 1.61 WHIP 1.3 K:BB 52.2 IP
Strengths
Strike thrower with low walk rate (0.48 BB/IP)—attacks the zone confidently
High innings (52.2 IP) shows coach's trust—reliability makes them a go-to pitcher
Areas to Watch
High WHIP of 1.61—too many baserunners create constant pressure
ERA of 5.05 doesn't reflect solid WHIP of 1.61—may be stranding fewer runners than expected
Recommendations
First-pitch strike emphasis: aim for 65%+ first-pitch-strike rate through better early-count aggression
Contact quality work: add movement/deception to induce weaker contact—change speeds more frequently
Focus on keeping innings clean: practice pitching with runners on, emphasize composure and strand rate
Ava Mullen
77
#4 Ava Mullen Developmental
5.58 ERA 2.03 WHIP 0.4 K:BB 52.2 IP
Strengths
High innings (52.2 IP) shows coach's trust—reliability makes them a go-to pitcher

Strengths
Developing pitcher with room for growth
Areas to Watch
High WHIP of 2.15—too many baserunners create constant pressure
Very poor K/BB ratio of 0.9—walks more than they strike out
Allows 1.59 hits per inning—hitters are squaring them up frequently
ERA of 6.78 indicates significant struggles—focus on fundamentals
Recommendations
Develop putaway pitch through bullpen sequencing—practice getting ahead 0-1, then finishing with secondary pitch
Contact quality work: add movement/deception to induce weaker contact—change speeds more frequently

Team Action Items

  • Team WHIP of 1.82 is well above the 1.20 benchmark. Focus on command refinement and pitch location awareness.
  • Strikeout rate of 0.51 K/IP is low (5 pitchers under 0.7). Develop putaway pitches and work on two-strike approach.
  • Workload imbalance: Lauren Schurman has 116.1 IP vs #2's 52.2 IP. Develop depth by extending other pitchers' outings.

StatLine Hitting-IQ

Team OPS of 0.994 is excellent (College benchmark: 0.750). Team batting 332 with 0.412 OBP and 0.583 SLG. Strikeout rate of 15% is excellent (benchmark: 20%). 66 HR with team ISO of 0.250—legitimate power throughout the lineup. 28 team SB—speed is a weapon this lineup uses well.Deep lineup with 10 hitters at or above OPS benchmark—no easy outs.
