Dominic Canzone is a designated hitter for the Seattle Mariners. In 2026 he hit 23 home runs and knocked in 77 RBIs, notching 126 hits across 533 plate appearances in 146 games. His batting average was .264, 8.3% higher than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .336 clip and slugged .484, for an OPS of .820, 14.1% higher than the league mark of .719 — the second best on his team, and 51st of 465 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 91.1 mph off the bat, hit 44.9% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 11.4% of them and made contact on 73.6% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 131 wRC+ puts his offence 31% above average. That comes to 2.6 dbWAR — +16.3 runs with the bat, +1.2 for the ballpark, -0.7 on the bases, +0.6 on double plays, -9.1 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.
