Julian Garcia is a relief pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds. In 2026 he struck out 41 batters over 46.0 innings across 33 appearances, going 2-3. His ERA of 3.13 is 25.1% lower than the league average of 4.18 — the third best on his team, and 109th of 538 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.60 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 27.7% of swings (12.8% of every pitch he threw), walked 10.6% of the batters he faced and struck out 22.9%. His 0.0 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.
