Cooper Pratt is a shortstop for the Milwaukee Brewers. In 2026 he hit 3 home runs and knocked in 34 RBIs, notching 64 hits across 266 plate appearances in 73 games. His batting average was .281, 15.0% higher than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .350 clip and slugged .368, for an OPS of .718, level with the league mark of .719 — 9th of 16 on his team, and 202nd of 465 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 85.3 mph off the bat, hit 27.8% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 3.2% of them and made contact on 78.2% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 103 wRC+ puts his offence 3% above average. That comes to 1.4 dbWAR — +1.0 runs with the bat, -0.0 for the ballpark, +2.1 on the bases, -1.4 on double plays, +4.0 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.

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.
