Eduardo Rodriguez is a starting pitcher for the Arizona Diamondbacks. In 2026 he struck out 101 batters over 143.1 innings across 24 appearances, 24 of them starts, going 11-4. His ERA of 2.70 was 35.3% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 4th of 14 on his team, and 69th of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.84 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 20.6% of swings (9.8% of every pitch he threw), walked 8.0% of the batters he faced and struck out 17.1%. His 2.0 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.

How these are computed

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.
