Pedro Ramírez is a designated hitter for the Chicago Cubs. In 2026 he hit 2 home runs and knocked in 15 RBIs, notching 33 hits across 124 plate appearances in 43 games. His batting average was .295, 20.9% higher than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .350 clip and slugged .438, for an OPS of .787, 9.4% higher than the league mark of .719 — the third best on his team, and 92nd of 417 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 89.0 mph off the bat, hit 42.4% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 78.9% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 118 wRC+ puts his offence 18% above average. That comes to 0.6 dbWAR — +2.6 runs with the bat, +0.8 on the bases, -1.3 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.

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.
