Noah Cameron is a starting pitcher for the Kansas City Royals. In 2026 he struck out 158 batters over 177.1 innings across 31 appearances, 30 of them starts, going 9-8. His ERA of 4.11 is 1.6% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 7th of 19 on his team, and 282nd of 538 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.93 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 25.8% of swings (12.4% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.8% of the batters he faced and struck out 21.2%. His 2.9 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.
