Chad Patrick is a relief pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers. In 2026 he struck out 78 batters over 86.2 innings across 40 appearances, going 6-4. His ERA of 3.32 was 20.4% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 8th of 16 on his team, and 134th of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.66 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 26.4% of swings (13.1% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.1% of the batters he faced and struck out 22.1%. His 1.0 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.

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.
