Steve Lombardozzi Jr. was a second baseman for the Miami Marlins. In 2017 he hit 0 home runs and knocked in 0 RBIs, notching 0 hits across 8 plate appearances in 2 games. His batting average was .000, 100.0% lower than the league average of .255. He reached base at a .000 clip and slugged .000, for an OPS of .000, 100.0% lower than the league mark of .750. He averaged 85.7 mph off the bat, hit 20.0% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 76.5% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his -127 wRC+ puts his offence 227% below average. That comes to -0.2 dbWAR — -2.2 runs with the bat, +0.0 for the ballpark, +0.0 on the bases, +0.1 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.

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.
