Robbie Ray is a starting pitcher for the San Francisco Giants. In 2026 he struck out 109 batters over 127.2 innings across 23 appearances, 22 of them starts, going 10-7. His ERA of 3.24 was 22.3% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 5th of 16 on his team, and 123rd of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.49 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 24.5% of swings (11.6% of every pitch he threw), walked 11.5% of the batters he faced and struck out 20.3%. His 0.8 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.
