Orlando Arcia is a shortstop for the Minnesota Twins. So far in 2026 he has hit 1 home run and knocked in 2 RBIs, notching 13 hits across 50 plate appearances in 17 games. His batting average is .271, 11.0% higher than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .300 clip and slugged .354, for an OPS of .654, 9.0% lower than the league mark of .719. He averaged 85.9 mph off the bat, hit 25.0% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 2.5% of them and made contact on 77.9% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 82 wRC+ puts his offence 18% below average. That comes to -0.0 dbWAR — -1.1 runs with the bat, +0.0 for the ballpark, -0.5 on the bases, -0.7 on double plays, +0.3 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.
