Vimael Machín is a third baseman for the Colorado Rockies. So far in 2026 he has hit 0 home runs and knocked in 0 RBIs, notching 3 hits across 6 plate appearances in 3 games. His batting average is .500, 105.0% higher than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .500 clip and slugged .500, for an OPS of 1.000, 39.2% higher than the league mark of .719. He averaged 90.2 mph off the bat, hit 50.0% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 55.6% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 181 wRC+ puts his offence 81% above average. That comes to 0.1 dbWAR — +0.6 runs with the bat, -0.0 for the ballpark, -0.0 on the bases, +0.0 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 Vimael Machín 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.
