Wins Above Fantasy – Van Burnett (@Van_Verified) and Steve Gesuele (@stav8818) revisit one of their favorite in-season edges — tracking year-over-year Statcast changes — but with an offseason lens to see which early-season signals actually held up. Using Fangraphs’ Season Stat Grid and Podhorzer’s retrospective articles as a guide, they break down the biggest movers in Max EV, bat speed, barrel rate, fastball velocity, Stuff+, and K–BB%.
