This report summarizes available 2026 MLB statistics and official position information and available season usage. Non-qualified comparisons are directional, not official leaderboard ranks. Percentiles are calculated by IQDugout from official MLB comparison pools. Confidence reflects sample size, qualification, and supported comparison coverage. Versatility labels summarize verified position usage and are not league benchmarks. This is a current-data evaluation, not a projection.
