Martín Pérez is a starting pitcher for the Atlanta Braves. In 2026 he struck out 102 batters over 142.0 innings across 30 appearances, 26 of them starts, going 9-9. His ERA of 3.04 is 27.2% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 6th of 15 on his team, and 98th of 538 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.32 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 21.1% of swings (9.0% of every pitch he threw), walked 10.4% of the batters he faced and struck out 17.1%. His 1.5 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.
