He averaged 52.8 mph off the bat and made contact on 71.4% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his -122 wRC+ puts his offence 222% below average. That comes to -0.1 dbWAR — -0.8 runs with the bat, -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.

Head to head
Put Emilio Bonifácio 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.
