16.5% barrel

Hunter Goodman has barrelled 16.5% of his batted balls this season across 476 plate appearances — about 2.2x the league rate of 7.5%. His hard-hit rate is 45.6%. He's facing Tyler Mahle, who has allowed 10 home runs in 80 innings this season — 1.12 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.
