Connor Phillips is a relief pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds. In 2026 he struck out 28 batters over 29.0 innings across 26 appearances, going 2-0. His ERA of 5.28 is 26.3% higher than the league average of 4.18 — 15th of 20 on his team, and 428th of 538 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.93 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 26.1% of swings (10.4% of every pitch he threw), walked 21.4% of the batters he faced and struck out 20.0%. His -0.4 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.
