Sandy Alcantara is a starting pitcher for the Miami Marlins. In 2026 he struck out 153 batters over 214.0 innings across 36 appearances, 33 of them starts, going 13-11. His ERA of 3.87 was 7.5% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 9th of 18 on his team, and 242nd of 539 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.08 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 21.0% of swings (10.6% of every pitch he threw), walked 6.6% of the batters he faced and struck out 17.1%. His 2.6 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.
