Chris Dominguez was a position player for the Cincinnati Reds. In 2015 he hit 1 home run and knocked in 3 RBIs, notching 6 hits across 23 plate appearances in 13 games. His batting average was .261, 2.5% higher than the league average of .254. He reached base at a .261 clip and slugged .522, for an OPS of .783, 8.5% higher than the league mark of .721. He averaged 81.5 mph off the bat, hit 33.3% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 50.0% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 107 wRC+ puts his offence 7% above average. That comes to 0.1 dbWAR — +0.3 runs with the bat, -0.0 on the bases, -0.5 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.

A barrel is a batted ball whose exit velocity and launch angle have historically produced at least a .500 average and 1.500 slugging — 98 mph within 26–30°, widening to 8–50° by 116 mph. Reconstructed from Statcast's published anchor points, which reproduces them exactly; the interior is within a degree. Sweet spot (8–32°) is an exact definition.

Runners on includes runners in scoring position, which is the convention every reference uses. Rows under 25 plate appearances are marked thin — at that size a rate moves several dozen points on one hit. Counted from play-by-play, 2015.
Head to head
Put Chris Dominguez beside up to three others.
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.
