I only thought I knew what the "vs. Pitcher" column indicates in Daily Projections - HELP

Please help by explaining what the "vs. Pitcher" column indicates in the Daily Projections.
For instance, in todays numbers (Analysis Source - Full Season) it shows Melky Cabrera as 11ab .455/.500/.545. He is facing Boston's Peavy tonight. Just looking at it I thought that meant Cabrera has faced Peavy 11 times this year but after looking into it, that is not the case. So what does the 11 ab (at bats) indicate? ALSO, what are the 3 numbers .455/.500/.545 ? BA, OBP, OPS, SLG ? I don't see that explained anywhere.

I appreciate your help - great website.

The "vs. Pitcher" column indicates a batter's career stats vs. that opposing pitcher. So Melky has totaled 11 AB's vs. Peavy in his career with a .455 BA, .500 OBP, and .545 SLG. We'll look to make this more clear for users moving forward.
