- HR (Home Runs) – any non-negative integer.
- RBI (Runs Batted In) – any non-negative integer.
- SB (Stolen Bases) – any non-negative integer.
- Click "Evaluate Trade" – The calculator computes a value for each player using the formula: (AVG × 100) + (HR × 0.5) + (RBI × 0.3) + (SB × 0.2).
- Read the Result:
- Green – Trade favors you (difference > +10 points).
- Red – Trade favors opponent (difference < -10 points).
- Yellow – Trade is fair (difference within ±10 points).

Frequently Asked Questions
The calculator uses batting average (AVG), home runs (HR), runs batted in (RBI), and stolen bases (SB) to compute a player's value.
Value = AVG * 100 + HR * 0.5 + RBI * 0.3 + SB * 0.2. This gives a weighted score based on typical fantasy baseball scoring.
A positive difference indicates you receive more value (trade favors you), negative means you give more (trade favors opponent). A difference within ±10 points is considered fair.
