Hunter Gaddis is a relief pitcher for the Cleveland Guardians. In 2026 he struck out 57 batters over 60.1 innings across 68 appearances, going 6-3. His ERA of 2.98 was 28.6% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 5th of 15 on his team, and 91st of 539 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.97 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 29.5% of swings (15.2% of every pitch he threw), walked 8.6% of the batters he faced and struck out 22.2%. 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.

Box-score and rate statistics only. wOBA, wRC+, FIP and dbWAR are measured against a full league season, and a postseason is a few teams playing each other for a month, so they are not computed for October.
