Blas Castaño is a relief pitcher for the Colorado Rockies. In 2026 he struck out 17 batters over 20.2 innings across 10 appearances, going 1-0. His ERA of 3.92 was 6.1% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 4th of 17 on his team, and 240th of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.12 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 19.7% of swings (9.0% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.1% of the batters he faced and struck out 20.0%. His -0.1 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.
