Jordan Hicks is a relief pitcher for the Chicago White Sox. In 2026 he struck out 64 batters over 48.0 innings across 53 appearances, going 3-2. His ERA of 3.94 was 5.8% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 11th of 18 on his team, and 254th of 539 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.64 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 28.2% of swings (12.5% of every pitch he threw), walked 15.3% of the batters he faced and struck out 29.6%. His 0.6 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.
