Jordan Lawlar is a center fielder for the Arizona Diamondbacks. In 2026 he hit 6 home runs and knocked in 16 RBIs, notching 32 hits across 136 plate appearances in 42 games. His batting average was .258, 5.8% higher than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .319 clip and slugged .460, for an OPS of .778, 8.2% higher than the league mark of .719 — 4th of 18 on his team, and 101st of 465 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 85.8 mph off the bat, hit 31.4% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 7.0% of them and made contact on 73.1% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 116 wRC+ puts his offence 16% above average. That comes to 0.8 dbWAR — +2.5 runs with the bat, +0.1 for the ballpark, +0.6 on the bases, +0.1 on double plays, +0.3 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.
