Reynaldo López is a relief pitcher for the Atlanta Braves. In 2026 he struck out 66 batters over 71.2 innings across 24 appearances, going 4-3. His ERA of 3.64 was 12.8% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 9th of 13 on his team, and 195th of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.31 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 21.8% of swings (9.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.5% of the batters he faced and struck out 21.6%. 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.
