Brandon Sproat is a starting pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers. In 2026 he struck out 100 batters over 95.2 innings across 21 appearances, 19 of them starts, going 3-7. His ERA of 5.27 was 26.2% higher than the league average of 4.18 — 14th of 16 on his team, and 373rd of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.09 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 25.0% of swings (11.5% of every pitch he threw), walked 11.6% of the batters he faced and struck out 24.2%. His -0.1 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.
