• Fantasy Points: a scoring system that awards a player points for different stats they accumulate throughout the game. The points from each stat will be combined for an overall score. Only stats from the player’s primary position (hitting or pitching) will be counted towards their question, so if a pitcher hits or a position player makes a pitching appearance, those stats will not be counted. Points are awarded as follows (you can also view these breakdowns by clicking the i icon next to a player’s listed projection):
Hitter
Single: 3 points each
Double: 6 points each
Triple: 8 points each
Home Run: 10 points each
Walk: 3 points each
Hit by Pitch: 3 points each
RBI: 2 points each
Run: 2 points each
Stolen Base: 4 points each
