Jacob Stallings is a catcher for the Colorado Rockies. In 2025 he hit 0 home runs and knocked in 9 RBIs, notching 16 hits across 129 plate appearances in 41 games. His batting average was .134, 45.2% lower than the league average of .245. He reached base at a .195 clip and slugged .168, for an OPS of .363, 49.5% lower than the league mark of .719 — the worst on his team, and the second worst among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 84.7 mph off the bat, hit 26.3% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 1.3% of them and made contact on 66.2% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 1 wRC+ puts his offence 99% below average. That comes to -0.8 dbWAR — -15.1 runs with the bat, -0.1 on the bases, +2.6 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.
