Travis Bazzana is a second baseman for the Cleveland Guardians. In 2026 he hit 9 home runs and knocked in 36 RBIs, notching 77 hits across 370 plate appearances in 86 games. His batting average was .241, 0.9% lower than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .338 clip and slugged .386, for an OPS of .723, 0.6% higher than the league mark of .719 — 4th of 14 on his team, and 178th of 417 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 88.0 mph off the bat, hit 37.3% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 74.7% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 103 wRC+ puts his offence 3% above average. That comes to 1.7 dbWAR — +2.1 runs with the bat, +1.2 on the bases, +0.9 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.
