Trevor Story is a shortstop for the Boston Red Sox. In 2026 he hit 5 home runs and knocked in 29 RBIs, notching 59 hits across 266 plate appearances in 64 games. His batting average was .235, 3.7% lower than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .271 clip and slugged .351, for an OPS of .621, 13.6% lower than the league mark of .719 — 14th of 16 on his team, and 373rd of 465 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 86.8 mph off the bat, hit 36.5% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 4.8% of them and made contact on 68.2% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 67 wRC+ puts his offence 33% below average. That comes to 0.2 dbWAR — -10.1 runs with the bat, -0.2 for the ballpark, +0.7 on the bases, -0.1 on double plays, +3.7 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.

A barrel is a batted ball whose exit velocity and launch angle have historically produced at least a .500 average and 1.500 slugging — 98 mph within 26–30°, widening to 8–50° by 116 mph. Reconstructed from Statcast's published anchor points, which reproduces them exactly; the interior is within a degree. Sweet spot (8–32°) is an exact definition.

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.
