Jeffrey Springs is a starting pitcher for the Athletics. In 2026 he struck out 88 batters over 108.0 innings across 22 appearances, 22 of them starts, going 3-11. His ERA of 6.17 was 47.7% higher than the league average of 4.18 — 14th of 16 on his team, and 425th of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 6.11 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 23.6% of swings (10.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.2% of the batters he faced and struck out 18.4%. His -1.2 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.
