Konnor Pilkington is a relief pitcher for the Washington Nationals. In 2025 he struck out 34 batters over 28.1 innings across 32 appearances, going 2-0. His ERA of 4.45 was 6.9% higher than the league average of 4.16 — 10th of 21 on his team, and 342nd of 542 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.96 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 29.1% of swings (13.0% of every pitch he threw), walked 13.8% of the batters he faced and struck out 27.6%. His -0.4 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.
