McCade Brown is a starting pitcher for the Colorado Rockies. In 2025 he struck out 23 batters over 25.2 innings across 7 appearances, 7 of them starts, going 0-5. His ERA of 7.36 was 77.1% higher than the league average of 4.16 — 18th of 21 on his team, and 525th of 542 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 6.95 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 23.3% of swings (10.4% of every pitch he threw), walked 13.5% of the batters he faced and struck out 18.3%. 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.
