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 3.90 is needs work (College benchmark: 2.80). WHIP 1.49 is elevated (benchmark: 1.20). Team K/BB of 1.27 is below the 3.5 standard. Top pitcher handles 38% 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. 3 pitcher(s) still working on fundamentals—give them low-pressure innings to build confidence.
105
#7 Emilee Boyer No.3 / Spot Starter
Strengths
High innings (110.1 IP) shows coach's trust—reliability makes them a go-to pitcher
Allows less than one hit per inning (0.86 H/IP)—tough to square up
Areas to Watch
Low K/BB ratio of 1.8—needs to develop better putaway ability
Recommendations
First-pitch strike emphasis: aim for 65%+ first-pitch-strike rate through better early-count aggression
Throwing 38% of team innings—monitor workload to prevent fatigue in postseason
104
#2 Lilly Whitten No.3 / Spot Starter
Strengths
Solid ERA of 2.56—reliable run prevention for the team
Allows less than one hit per inning (0.76 H/IP)—tough to square up
Areas to Watch
Low K/BB ratio of 1.1—needs to develop better putaway ability
FIP of 4.35 is much higher than ERA of 2.56—may be benefiting from defense or sequencing luck
Recommendations
First-pitch strike emphasis: aim for 65%+ first-pitch-strike rate through better early-count aggression
Solid foundation—continue current trajectory, add secondary pitch variation to keep hitters guessing
102
#16 Hope Jenkins Developmental
Strengths
Dominant strikeout ability with K/IP of 0.56—consistently generates swings-and-misses
Strike thrower with low walk rate (0.20 BB/IP)—attacks the zone confidently
Areas to Watch
High WHIP of 2.25—too many baserunners create constant pressure
Allows 2.16 hits per inning—hitters are squaring them up frequently
Small sample size of 5.1 innings—trends may change with more work
Recommendations
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
Continue building sample size—observe trends over next 5-10 innings before finalizing priorities
99
#30 Kyra Aycock No.3 / Spot Starter
Strengths
High innings (93.2 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
Very poor K/BB ratio of 1.0—walks more than they strike out
Recommendations
Develop putaway pitch through bullpen sequencing—practice getting ahead 0-1, then finishing with secondary pitch
98
#24 Payton Kennedy Developmental
Strengths
Developing pitcher with room for growth
Areas to Watch
High WHIP of 2.29—too many baserunners create constant pressure
Very poor K/BB ratio of 0.3—walks more than they strike out
Small sample size of 7 innings—trends may change with more work
Recommendations
Develop putaway pitch through bullpen sequencing—practice getting ahead 0-1, then finishing with secondary pitch
Command-first approach: simplify to one primary pitch, work on hitting spots, then gradually add secondary offerings
Strikeout development: add velocity work, develop sharper breaking pitch, practice two-strike putaway approach
83
#82 Graycen Jordan Developmental
Strengths
Developing pitcher with room for growth
Areas to Watch
High WHIP of 3.13—too many baserunners create constant pressure
Very poor K/BB ratio of 0.3—walks more than they strike out
Allows 2.38 hits per inning—hitters are squaring them up frequently
Small sample size of 8 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
Team Action Items
- WHIP needs improvement: Currently 1.49 vs 1.20 target. Work on limiting baserunners through better contact management.
- Increase strikeout capability from 0.70 to 1.0+ K/IP. Develop sharper secondary pitches and practice two-strike sequences.
