| eRBI – Expected RBI |
| Represents the number of RBIs that the league average would have generated in the same amount of situations a given player was presented with during a season. |
| aRBI – Actual RBI |
| Represents the RBIs that a given player actually drove in, which eliminates RBIs accumulated on walks or errors in the field - sacrifice flies and groundouts are still included. |
| aeRatio – Actual RBI over Expected RBI |
| Represents the amount of actual RBIs that a player earns per each expected RBI. A ratio above one shows a player drove in more runs than expected, while a ratio under one shows a player failed to drive in more runs than what the league average would be expected to. |
| ROLA – Runs Over League Average |
| Represents the variance between a player’s actual RBI and their expected RBI. A positive ROLA shows a player who drove in more runs than expected, while a negative ROLA shows a player failed to drive in more runs than what the league average would be expected to. |
