How to read it: the shaded row is the swing shift; the row below is whether the bat played better — AVG/OPS/wOBA (results) and xwOBA/Barrel%/HardHit% (contact quality). A swing that moved toward the 5–20° ideal band and lifted the contact-quality stats is the cleanest "real change." Ideal Attack Angle % = share of competitive swings in the 5–20° band.
