Hitter Advanced Metrics Leaders - Hard Hit% for Week 14
The last time we examined hard-hit rate leaders was back in Week 3. A lot has changed since then, needless to say.

Top Hitter Streamers and Starts for Fantasy Baseball - Week 14
Have we found a reasonable median expectation for offense moving forward?
