It is our own score for how good a card is. Rather than trust the number the game prints on the front, it reads the card's actual ratings — power, contact, fielding and the rest — and weighs them the way the game appears to. It runs past 100 because those underlying ratings do.
Where this card's 99.3 comes from · How the whole thing was built

What he actually does
This card is a contact hitter first — 118 contact against 97 power. The splits matter here: 90 power against right-handers and 104 against lefties, so he is a different hitter depending on who is pitching. Average legs at 60. In the field he grades 66 with a 57 arm — average for a shortstop.
