Kyle Tucker is a right fielder for the Los Angeles Dodgers. In 2026 he hit 11 home runs and knocked in 54 RBIs, notching 96 hits across 457 plate appearances in 111 games. His batting average was .244, level with the league average of .244. He reached base at a .339 clip and slugged .388, for an OPS of .727, 1.1% higher than the league mark of .719 — 8th of 14 on his team, and 170th of 417 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 88.8 mph off the bat, hit 38.7% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 77.9% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 108 wRC+ puts his offence 8% above average. That comes to 1.4 dbWAR — +3.5 runs with the bat, +0.7 on the bases, -5.7 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.
