Chad Stevens is a second baseman for the Colorado Rockies. In 2026 he hit 0 home runs and knocked in 3 RBIs, notching 1 hit across 34 plate appearances in 15 games. His batting average was .036, 85.3% lower than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .176 clip and slugged .036, for an OPS of .212, 70.5% lower than the league mark of .719. He averaged 81.4 mph off the bat, hit 25.0% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 68.9% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his -29 wRC+ puts his offence 129% below average. That comes to -0.4 dbWAR — -5.2 runs with the bat, -0.0 on the bases, +0.1 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.

How these are computed

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.
