Tejay Antone is a relief pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds. In 2026 he struck out 35 batters over 37.0 innings across 37 appearances, going 1-0. His ERA of 2.92 was 30.1% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 4th of 19 on his team, and 101st of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.65 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 27.2% of swings (13.2% of every pitch he threw), walked 6.4% of the batters he faced and struck out 22.4%. His 0.4 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.
