Luis Arraez is a second baseman for the San Francisco Giants. In 2026 he hit 6 home runs and knocked in 64 RBIs, notching 185 hits across 655 plate appearances in 151 games. His batting average was .310, 27.2% higher than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .345 clip and slugged .419, for an OPS of .765, 6.3% higher than the league mark of .719 — 4th of 18 on his team, and 122nd of 465 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 85.6 mph off the bat, hit 19.4% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 1.2% of them and made contact on 92.9% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 113 wRC+ puts his offence 13% above average. That comes to 3.5 dbWAR — +7.8 runs with the bat, +0.9 for the ballpark, +0.6 on the bases, -1.4 on double plays, +5.4 for the position he plays, against replacement level. It includes no fielding: defensive runs are proprietary and are not estimated here, so the figure credits playing a demanding position but not playing it well.

A barrel is a batted ball whose exit velocity and launch angle have historically produced at least a .500 average and 1.500 slugging — 98 mph within 26–30°, widening to 8–50° by 116 mph. Reconstructed from Statcast's published anchor points, which reproduces them exactly; the interior is within a degree. Sweet spot (8–32°) is an exact definition.

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.
