Each pundit’s standing lean on David Bailey, measured against every other pundit who made a comparable call — same kind of claim, same season. +100 would mean the most bullish voice in every room; −100 the most bearish. At least two articles per pundit before a lean is shown, and the accuracy is how that pundit’s settled calls about him have graded out. A lean is a fact about the pundit, never a judgment of the player.
more bullish than 73% of the room, across 3 articles · 100.0 accuracy on him (2 settled)
more bullish than 65% of the room, across 2 articles · 100.0 accuracy on him (2 settled)
