David Fletcher is a second baseman for the Atlanta Braves. In 2024 he hit 0 home runs and knocked in 2 RBIs, notching 2 hits across 9 plate appearances in 3 games. His batting average was .250, 2.8% higher than the league average of .243. He reached base at a .222 clip and slugged .250, for an OPS of .472, 33.6% lower than the league mark of .711. He averaged 80.7 mph off the bat and made contact on 100.0% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 20 wRC+ puts his offence 80% below average. That comes to -0.1 dbWAR — -0.8 runs with the bat, -0.0 on the bases, +0.0 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.

Head to head
Put David Fletcher beside up to three others.
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.
