Yency Almonte is a relief pitcher for the Chicago Cubs. In 2024 he struck out 20 batters over 15.2 innings across 17 appearances, going 1-0. His ERA of 3.45 was 15.5% lower than the league average of 4.08. Stripping out defence, his 3.36 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 30.9% of swings (12.7% of every pitch he threw), walked 11.9% of the batters he faced and struck out 29.9%. His 0.2 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.

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.
