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 AnalyticsTeam ERA of 4.05 is needs work (College benchmark: 2.80). WHIP 1.62 is elevated (benchmark: 1.20). Team K/BB of 1.28 is below the 3.5 standard. Top pitcher handles 39% of innings—manageable but monitor as season progresses. No dominant ace yet, but 3 solid pitchers provide good options—spread innings to develop all arms evenly.

#7 Kaci West No.3 / Spot Starter
Strengths
Strike thrower with low walk rate (0.00 BB/IP)—attacks the zone confidently
Areas to Watch
High WHIP of 2.00—too many baserunners create constant pressure
ERA looks good but WHIP of 2.00 suggests possible regression—stranding runners at high rate
Very poor K/BB ratio of 0.0—walks more than they strike out
Allows 2.00 hits per inning—hitters are squaring them up frequently
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
98
#12 Cambree Creager Situational
Strengths
Strike thrower with low walk rate (0.49 BB/IP)—attacks the zone confidently
High innings (107.2 IP) shows coach's trust—reliability makes them a go-to pitcher
Areas to Watch
High WHIP of 1.64—too many baserunners create constant pressure
ERA looks good but WHIP of 1.64 suggests possible regression—stranding runners at high rate
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
Underlying numbers suggest tougher times ahead—proactively improve WHIP through better location
95
#3 Peyton Tanner Situational
Strengths
High innings (76.1 IP) shows coach's trust—reliability makes them a go-to pitcher
Allows less than one hit per inning (0.93 H/IP)—tough to square up
Areas to Watch
High WHIP of 1.66—too many baserunners create constant pressure
Low K/BB ratio of 1.2—needs to develop better putaway ability
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
95
#2 Sadie Ross No.3 / Spot Starter
Strengths
Solid ERA of 3.19—reliable run prevention for the team
Areas to Watch
High WHIP of 1.68—too many baserunners create constant pressure
ERA looks good but WHIP of 1.68 suggests possible regression—stranding runners at high rate
Low K/BB ratio of 1.2—needs to develop better putaway ability
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
Underlying numbers suggest tougher times ahead—proactively improve WHIP through better location
93
#8 Lexie Warncke No.3 / Spot Starter
Strengths
Strike thrower with low walk rate (0.31 BB/IP)—attacks the zone confidently
Areas to Watch
ERA of 4.86 doesn't reflect solid WHIP of 1.41—may be stranding fewer runners than expected
Recommendations
First-pitch strike emphasis: aim for 65%+ first-pitch-strike rate through better early-count aggression
Focus on keeping innings clean: practice pitching with runners on, emphasize composure and strand rate
Team Action Items
- Team WHIP of 1.62 is well above the 1.20 benchmark. Focus on command refinement and pitch location awareness.
- Strikeout rate of 0.68 K/IP is low (4 pitchers under 0.7). Develop putaway pitches and work on two-strike approach.
StatLine Hitting-IQ
Powered by StatLine AnalyticsTeam OPS of 0.796 is solid (College benchmark: 0.750). Team batting 287 with 0.376 OBP and 0.420 SLG. Strikeout rate of 11% is excellent (benchmark: 20%). 26 HR with team ISO of 0.133—legitimate power throughout the lineup. 55 team SB—speed is a weapon this lineup uses well.Deep lineup with 7 hitters at or above OPS benchmark—no easy outs.
