Shape Consistency
About this metric
Composite Repeatability combines launch-angle, spin-axis, and ball-speed-residual variation into a single score. Higher = more uniform across all axes. Best used to identify players whose entire swing — not just one component — is exceptionally repeatable.

Stuff+ 101.0 · Composite Repeatability 0.21
Top-tier Stuff+ but volatile by this measure. Often a sign of intentional shaping rather than poor delivery.
