Martín Pérez is a starting pitcher for the Atlanta Braves. In 2026 he struck out 78 batters over 100.1 innings across 22 appearances, 18 of them starts, going 7-6. His ERA of 3.14 was 24.8% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 7th of 13 on his team, and 116th of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.21 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 22.3% of swings (9.4% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.8% of the batters he faced and struck out 19.2%. His 0.9 dbWAR is built from that FIP rather than runs allowed, so it credits him for what he controls and not for the defence behind him.
