Overview : From an offensive perspective, I evaluated and ranked 2,397 Division 1 softball players from Start of Season — April 6, 2025, with no minimum Plate appearance requirement. Players were assessed using a neutralized Run Value system to measure their overall offensive production, broken down into two core components:

“The Hit Tool” — Measures a player’s offensive impact via hitting
“The Run Tool”— Captures the value generated from non-hit plate appearances (walks, stolen bases, etc.)
Overall— A sum of run value hitting and run value running, representing overall offensive contribution

Each player is ranked in these three categories: Run Tool, Hit Tool , and Overall . This week I’m releasing a list of all the softball players and breaking down the top 10, as well as the biggest movers!
