Reynaldo López is a relief pitcher for the Atlanta Braves. In 2026 he struck out 73 batters over 79.1 innings across 26 appearances, going 4-5. His ERA of 4.54 is 8.6% higher than the league average of 4.18 — 12th of 15 on his team, and 348th of 538 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.39 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 22.3% of swings (10.2% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.8% of the batters he faced and struck out 21.1%. 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.
