Brian Barton was a right fielder for the Atlanta Braves. In 2009 he hit 0 home runs and knocked in 0 RBIs, notching 0 hits across 0 plate appearances in 1 game. That comes to -0.0 dbWAR — +0.0 for the ballpark, -0.4 on the bases, +0.0 for the position he plays, against replacement level. It includes no fielding: defensive runs are proprietary and are not estimated here, so the figure credits playing a demanding position but not playing it well.

Not in the 2009 data: exit velocity and launch angle, first recorded in 2015. The play-by-play goes back to 2005, but the measurements on each pitch and batted ball arrived later, so the panels built from them are left off this season.

How these are computed

wOBA uses linear weights measured from this season's own play-by-play rather than published constants, and wRC+ is park-adjusted against that same league. dbWAR is our own open implementation — not fWAR or bWAR — and the full derivation, including its simplifications, is on the methodology page.
