Trevor Richards is a relief pitcher for the Chicago White Sox. In 2026 he struck out 70 batters over 79.2 innings across 53 appearances, going 0-1. His ERA of 3.73 is 10.8% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 9th of 18 on his team, and 211th of 538 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.16 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 21.2% of swings (10.3% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.8% of the batters he faced and struck out 21.0%. His 0.5 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.
