Blake Perkins is a center fielder for the Milwaukee Brewers. In 2026 he hit 1 home run and knocked in 11 RBIs, notching 14 hits across 101 plate appearances in 45 games. His batting average was .157, 35.4% lower than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .250 clip and slugged .258, for an OPS of .508, 29.3% lower than the league mark of .719 — the worst on his team, and 408th of 417 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 83.8 mph off the bat, hit 33.8% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 79.1% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 44 wRC+ puts his offence 56% below average. That comes to -0.4 dbWAR — -6.7 runs with the bat, +0.1 on the bases, -0.6 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.

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.
