Jalen Beeks is a relief pitcher for the Texas Rangers. In 2026 he struck out 21 batters over 26.0 innings across 29 appearances, going 2-1. His ERA of 3.81 was 8.9% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 5th of 16 on his team, and 227th of 539 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.41 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 23.4% of swings (11.1% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.1% of the batters he faced and struck out 18.6%. His -0.2 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.
