RISP & Missing RBIs
How hitters produce with Runners In Scoring Position vs their own overall line and the league — and the RBIs that gap is hiding. RISP rate is mostly small-sample noise that regresses to a hitter’s true talent, so the biggest gaps are the cleanest buy-low / sell-high RBI signals.
How to read this:
- AVG / wOBA show overall → RISP. The RISP number is green when he’s better with RISP, red when worse.
- Clutch Δ = RISP − overall (wOBA). Big negative = choking with traffic on (regresses up); big positive = unsustainable clutch (regresses down).
- vs Lg = his RISP wOBA minus the league RISP wOBA — RISP skill independent of his own baseline.
- Missing / Bonus RBI = (RISP hits at his actual rate − RISP hits at his own overall rate) × ~0.95 RBI/hit, over his estimated RISP at-bats. Negative = RBIs owed (buy); positive = banked (sell).
Example: a .250 hitter slumping to .150 with RISP over ~90 RISP AB has left ~8 hits — and roughly 7–8 RBIs — on the table. As his RISP line climbs back toward .250, those RBIs come.
RISP production well BELOW the hitter's own overall line — his RBI total is suppressed and should climb as RISP regresses toward his true rate.
