Hunter Bigge is a relief pitcher for the Tampa Bay Rays. In 2026 he struck out 14 batters over 19.1 innings across 18 appearances, going 1-1. His ERA of 6.98 was 67.2% higher than the league average of 4.18. Stripping out defence, his 4.48 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 25.9% of swings (11.3% of every pitch he threw), walked 16.5% of the batters he faced and struck out 16.5%. His 0.0 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.

Head to head
Put Hunter Bigge beside up to three others.
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.
