Emmet Sheehan is a starting pitcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers. In 2026 he struck out 132 batters over 112.1 innings across 23 appearances, 22 of them starts, going 5-8. His ERA of 4.57 is 9.3% higher than the league average of 4.18 — 16th of 18 on his team, and 353rd of 538 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.28 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 31.6% of swings (16.0% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.0% of the batters he faced and struck out 28.0%. His 1.2 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.
