TJ Rumfield is a first baseman for the Colorado Rockies. In 2026 he hit 13 home runs and knocked in 59 RBIs, notching 121 hits across 464 plate appearances in 115 games. His batting average was .295, 21.1% higher than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .373 clip and slugged .459, for an OPS of .831, 15.6% higher than the league mark of .719 — 5th of 14 on his team, and 40th of 417 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 83.9 mph off the bat, hit 28.1% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 80.1% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 130 wRC+ puts his offence 30% above average. That comes to 2.4 dbWAR — +19.0 runs with the bat, -0.8 on the bases, -10.1 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.

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.
