Dalton Pompey is a left fielder for the Toronto Blue Jays. In 2018 he hit 0 home runs and knocked in 0 RBIs, notching 2 hits across 11 plate appearances in 5 games. His batting average was .200, 19.3% lower than the league average of .248. He reached base at a .273 clip and slugged .200, for an OPS of .473, 35.0% lower than the league mark of .728. He averaged 86.8 mph off the bat and made contact on 55.6% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 35 wRC+ puts his offence 65% below average. That comes to -0.1 dbWAR — -0.8 runs with the bat, -0.0 on the bases, -0.2 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 Dalton Pompey 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.
