About this page

One major-league player published here was born in Saudi Arabia, and he appeared between 2015 and 2019. None appeared in 2026. Together they are worth 2.3 dbWAR, on 0 home runs and 185 strikeouts thrown.

The most valuable of them by our own measure is Alex Wilson, worth 2.3 dbWAR across 2015–2019. His best year was 2016, at 0.9 WAR. Alex Wilson has been in the majors longest of anyone here, since 2013.

Alex Wilson has thrown the most strikeouts, 185. These are totals over the seasons published here rather than whole careers: a player who debuted before 2015 arrives mid-career, and his numbers start where the archive does.

Country here means country of birth, taken from each player's biographical record. It is not nationality and not who a player has represented internationally — the three disagree often enough to matter, and birthplace is the one this data actually holds. Every rate statistic and every dbWAR figure is computed from play-by-play using constants measured from each season's own data, so the numbers are era-correct without being copied from anywhere.
