ELITE BARREL RATE
Published Wednesday, September 30, 2026
Kyle Schwarber has barrelled 15.6% of his batted balls this season across 701 plate appearances — about 2.08x the league rate of 7.5%. His hard-hit rate is 49.3%. He's facing Tyler Mahle, who has allowed 9 home runs in 84.8 innings this season — 0.96 per nine. A barrel is contact at the exit velocity and launch angle that produces home runs, so this measures the contact itself rather than the results it has produced so far.
