Handedness Splits
MLB performance is often split by pitcher/batter handedness. PropsMadness surfaces both sides:
RHP / LHP - Right-Handed / Left-Handed Pitcher
RHB / LHB - Right-Handed / Left-Handed Batter
vs RHP / vs LHP - A batter's stats against right- or left-handed pitching (e.g., BA vs LHP, ISO vs RHP)
vs RHB / vs LHB - A pitcher's stats against right- or left-handed batters (e.g., K% vs RHB)
Opponent & Matchup Metrics
Facing a pitcher (batter props): Opp SP stats show how the opposing starting pitcher ranks league-wide, as a percentile (0β100, higher = tougher matchup for opponents).
Opp SP BA / OBP / wOBA / ISO / BABIP Pctl - Where the starting pitcher ranks in each category
Opp SP K% / BB% / HR/9 / HR/FB% Pctl - Strikeout, walk, and home-run-suppression percentiles
Opp SP GB% / FB% / Contact% / LOB% Pctl - Batted-ball and stranding percentiles
Each of the above is also split vs RHB / vs LHB
Facing a lineup (pitcher props): Opp Lineup stats show how the opposing team's hitters perform overall.
Opp K% / Whiff% / BB% Allowed - How often the lineup strikes out, whiffs, or walks
Opp BA / OBP / OPS / ISO / BABIP Allowed - Lineup production allowed
Opp Pitches/PA Allowed - How many pitches the lineup sees per plate appearance
Each is also split vs RHP / vs LHP
