Chris Clegg's MLB and MILB Advanced Database
Chris Clegg provides his database with advanced stats for both MLB and MILB.
If you know me or have followed my work for a while, you know that I love advanced data. I have studied it for a long time and figured out the best ways to blend it with scouting methods to help find the best players for fantasy baseball players.
There is a ton of data out there, and knowing what is just noise and what is useful is highly important. Most of the MILB data is non-public, but as the ABS system continues to be implemented in the Minor Leagues, we have statcast data for Triple-A and Single-A(Florida State League). Also, in the backlogs on MLB API, you can get swing data which means accurate contact rates for every Minor League hitter, swinging strike rates, and CSW% for every MILB pitcher. Metrics that I find highly useful in my evaluation process.
I knew zero about code coming into this year, but I have worked hard to understand better how to code to get this data and give access to you, the reader. So, over the last few months, I have been working to properly code and get this data and present it in a useful way to the reader. My database is not as eloquent as some out there, but it’s mine, and I am proud of how far I have come with my knowledge of coding and presenting data. My commitment to you is that it will only get better and have more things added to it in the offseason.
Currently, you can see and compare:
For All Levels(A-MLB)
-Contact%
-CSW%
-Swinging Strike%
-K-BB%
-Strike%
For Statcast Games(A,AAA,MLB)
-Launch Angle
-Average EV
-90th Percentile EV
-Max EV
-Pitcher Arsenals (Pitch types, Average Velo, Max Velo, Spin Rates, CSW, Strike%)
*More data is on the way, and my commitment to you is to make this better and provide as much data as possible!
There are also some cool charts to see the data visualized.
