Edmundo Sosa is a left fielder for the Philadelphia Phillies. In 2026 he hit 5 home runs and knocked in 25 RBIs, notching 37 hits across 192 plate appearances in 62 games. His batting average was .210, 13.7% lower than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .249 clip and slugged .335, for an OPS of .584, 18.8% lower than the league mark of .719 — the worst on his team, and 377th of 417 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 87.1 mph off the bat, hit 40.7% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 6.4% of them and made contact on 73.6% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 55 wRC+ puts his offence 45% below average. That comes to -0.3 dbWAR — -9.8 runs with the bat, +0.4 on the bases, -0.1 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.
