Hitters use basically all the default batting stats you'd expect. Fielding and baserunning are not factored in though. hits, 2b, 3b, HR, BB, HBP, K's etc. all factor in against total pa's.
For a guy like Yastrzemski, the relevant factor is how he's played compared to previously.
His last 14 days, he put up a .294/.400/.627 line.
Fantastic for sure. But his total season line is .309/.429/.645
So he was actually worse in the previous 14 days than he had been in the rest of the season prior.
That can potentially be offset a bit by the fact that as time goes on, and players play more, we assign more weight to their current season ratings and less to the original projections, and allow bigger swings, but seems that wasn't enough here to keep him from getting a tiny drop based on his performance actually falling off a bit in the last 14 days, compared to previously.
