Carlos Rodón is a starting pitcher for the New York Yankees. In 2026 he struck out 91 batters over 84.1 innings across 16 appearances, 16 of them starts, going 7-3. His ERA of 2.67 is 36.1% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 6th of 17 on his team, and 60th of 538 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.45 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 30.0% of swings (14.4% of every pitch he threw), walked 11.2% of the batters he faced and struck out 26.8%. His 1.8 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.

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.
