Stat Spotlight - OPS

OPS, or On-base Plus Slugging, is one of baseball’s most popular “all-in-one” hitting stats. It simply adds together a player’s On-Base Percentage (OBP) — how often they reach base — and their Slugging Percentage (SLG) — how much power they hit for.

Why it matters: OPS balances patience and power. A hitter who draws walks but doesn’t slug much will have a decent OBP but low SLG. A free-swinging slugger might have the opposite. OPS captures both skills at once.

Benchmarks:

• .900+ → Superstar level

• .800–.899 → Above average

• .700–.799 → Average

• Below .700 → Below average

For example, in 2024, the league average OPS was about .720, while top hitters like Shohei Ohtani and Aaron Judge posted OPS marks over .950, showing just how dominant they were compared to the average major leaguer.
