Ramón Urías is a third baseman for the St. Louis Cardinals. In 2026 he hit 4 home runs and knocked in 9 RBIs, notching 13 hits across 100 plate appearances in 37 games. His batting average was .151, 38.0% lower than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .260 clip and slugged .326, for an OPS of .586, 18.6% lower than the league mark of .719 — 17th of 19 on his team, and 414th of 465 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 88.5 mph off the bat, hit 34.8% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 7.2% of them and made contact on 76.6% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 67 wRC+ puts his offence 33% below average. That comes to -0.2 dbWAR — -4.2 runs with the bat, +0.2 for the ballpark, -0.5 on the bases, -0.9 on double plays, +0.6 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.
