Travis Adams is a relief pitcher for the Minnesota Twins. In 2026 he struck out 41 batters over 34.1 innings across 26 appearances, going 2-0. His ERA of 5.50 was 31.8% higher than the league average of 4.18 — 14th of 16 on his team, and 394th of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.08 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 29.3% of swings (13.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 11.3% of the batters he faced and struck out 27.3%. His 0.2 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.
