Jared Serna is a second baseman for the Miami Marlins. So far in 2026 he has hit 0 home runs and knocked in 2 RBIs, notching 3 hits across 16 plate appearances in 7 games. His batting average is .214, 12.2% lower than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .250 clip and slugged .357, for an OPS of .607, 15.6% lower than the league mark of .720. He averaged 89.4 mph off the bat, hit 60.0% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 10.0% of them and made contact on 69.7% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 59 wRC+ puts his offence 41% below average. That comes to -0.0 dbWAR — -0.8 runs with the bat, +0.0 for the ballpark, -0.0 on the bases, -0.3 on double plays, +0.1 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.

A barrel is a batted ball whose exit velocity and launch angle have historically produced at least a .500 average and 1.500 slugging — 98 mph within 26–30°, widening to 8–50° by 116 mph. Reconstructed from Statcast's published anchor points, which reproduces them exactly; the interior is within a degree. Sweet spot (8–32°) is an exact definition.

How these are computed

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.
