Luis Lara is a right fielder for the Milwaukee Brewers. In 2026 he hit 0 home runs and knocked in 11 RBIs, notching 15 hits across 77 plate appearances in 22 games. His batting average was .231, 5.3% lower than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .338 clip and slugged .338, for an OPS of .676, 6.0% lower than the league mark of .719. He averaged 89.0 mph off the bat, hit 39.2% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 78.5% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 96 wRC+ puts his offence 4% below average. That comes to 0.1 dbWAR — -0.5 runs with the bat, -0.1 on the bases, -1.0 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.

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.
