Kyle Gibson is a starting pitcher for the Baltimore Orioles. In 2025 he struck out 10 batters over 12.1 innings across 4 appearances, 4 of them starts, going 0-3. His ERA of 16.78 was 303.6% higher than the league average of 4.16. Stripping out defence, his 10.59 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 20.6% of swings (9.3% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.6% of the batters he faced and struck out 13.7%. His -0.8 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.

Head to head
Put Kyle Gibson beside up to three others.
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.
