Pedro Ramírez is a second baseman for the Chicago Cubs. In 2026 he hit 6 home runs and knocked in 32 RBIs, notching 63 hits across 266 plate appearances in 78 games. His batting average was .261, 7.1% higher than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .321 clip and slugged .402, for an OPS of .723, 0.6% higher than the league mark of .719 — 8th of 13 on his team, and 191st of 465 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 88.7 mph off the bat, hit 39.0% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 4.1% of them and made contact on 79.8% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 98 wRC+ puts his offence 2% below average. That comes to 1.1 dbWAR — -0.3 runs with the bat, -0.1 for the ballpark, +1.0 on the bases, +1.0 on double plays, +0.4 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.
