Clarke Schmidt is a relief pitcher for the New York Yankees. In 2026 he struck out 2 batters over 0.2 innings across 1 appearance, going 0-0. His ERA of 0.00 is 100.0% lower than the league average of 4.18. Stripping out defence, his -2.90 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 33.3% of swings (12.5% of every pitch he threw), walked 0.0% of the batters he faced and struck out 50.0%. His 0.1 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.
