Sean Bouchard is a right fielder for the Colorado Rockies. In 2025 he hit 1 home run and knocked in 7 RBIs, notching 11 hits across 73 plate appearances in 31 games. His batting average was .167, 32.0% lower than the league average of .245. He reached base at a .247 clip and slugged .242, for an OPS of .489, 32.0% lower than the league mark of .719. He averaged 86.6 mph off the bat, hit 30.8% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 65.8% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 34 wRC+ puts his offence 66% below average. That comes to -0.5 dbWAR — -5.4 runs with the bat, -0.3 on the bases, -1.2 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.
