Cumulative projections: Any projection joined by the plus (+) symbol means that that pick is a combination of those stats. 'Hits + Bases + Runs' for example is the combination of all 3 stats.
Total Bases: counts the number of bases earned through a players hit. For example, Single = 1, Double = 2, Triple = 3 etc. Walks and Stolen bases are not included in the scoring system.
Pitching Outs: counts the amount of outs recorded while the pitcher is pitching in the game.
Pitch Count: counts the amount of pitches thrown by a pitcher. This is scored in accordance with MLB's official count.
Singles: A batted ball that results in a single. Doubles, Triples, and Home Runs do not count.
Strikeouts: This refers to strikeouts recorded as the pitcher. Strikeouts recorded as a batter will not count.
1st Inning Runs Allowed: Both unearned and earned runs will count towards the grading of this projection.
1-3 Inn. Runs Allowed: Both unearned and earned runs will count towards the grading of this projection.
In order for pitching projections to grade, the player must throw a pitch in the game. If the player starts the game (as a hitter) but does not pitch, his pitching projections will void, and his batting projections will grade normally.

Postponed Games:
If a game is postponed, all picks from that game will void.
Suspended Games:
For MLB (regular season) specifically, if a game is suspended and does not resume on the same day - any entry that was unequivocally determined prior to or at the time of suspension will be graded. For example, if you selected higher on Aaron Judge's 1.5 Total Base projection and he hits a double in the first inning and the game is suspended in the second inning, you would win that pick. If you selected lower on that pick, you would lose that pick.
Any pick that can not be determined will void. For example, if you made a pick (whether it be higher or lower) on Spencer Strider's 8.5 strikeouts projection and he has 7 strikeouts at the time of suspension and has yet to be replaced - that pick will void. For Spring Training only, MLB and MLBCOMBOS picks that are unequivocally decided prior to postponement will be graded, all other picks will void.

The 2025 MLB Full Season picks will exclude playoffs and be settled after the conclusion of the regular season based on their respective stats.
Batters are required to appear in at least 81 games. If they do not appear in at least 81 games, their projection will void.
Pitchers are required to throw at least one pitch in 15 games. If they do not throw one pitch in at least 15 games, their projection will void.
Pitchers' ERA projections will be rounded to the thousandth decimal place. For example, if a pitcher has a projection of 4.00 and their ERA is 3.999, their projection will be scored as a Lower. Hitters' batting averages will be rounded to the ten thousandth decimal place. For example, if a batter has a projection of .300 and their average is .2999, their projection will be scored as a Lower.
If a player changes teams at any point before or during the season, this will NOT affect the players' projections unless the team change results in an entry only consisting of one team, making it invalid at the time of settlement.
Additionally, if a player is released and does not sign with a new team, this will not affect his projection, and the above game appearance requirements remain intact.
