This is where numbers meet nuance. We trim the Five-Slash into three playoff signals: BB/K (discipline), ISO (power), and BWR (BaseWinner Runs Created).
Metrics are drawn from rolling samples: last 300 plate appearances for walk rate (BB%), last 150 for strikeout rate (K%), and last 250 for isolated power (ISO) β a blend that captures form and stability.
Below are Dodgers vs Blue Jays with Top 3 (green π) and Bottom 3 (red β¬οΈ) highlights across all 18 starters versus right-handed pitching.

Final thoughts: vs RHP, expect disciplined at-bats to win the margins. LAβs balance travels; Torontoβs grind keeps innings alive. Bank on matchups, not mayhem.
