Kyle Hart is a relief pitcher for the San Diego Padres. In 2026 he struck out 42 batters over 47.1 innings across 31 appearances, going 0-2. His ERA of 4.18 was level with the league average of 4.18 — 10th of 18 on his team, and 266th of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.49 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 21.2% of swings (9.4% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.3% of the batters he faced and struck out 22.0%. His 0.6 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.
