What this means:
A "barrel" is a batted ball with exit velocity ≥95 mph and a launch angle in the sweet spot
(roughly 25–30°). These are the hardest-hit, best-angled balls — the ones that usually leave
the yard. When a batter keeps barreling but not homering, they're getting unlucky.
The Gap column shows how many barrel games exceeded
their HR count. High gap + high EV = prime regression candidate.
