Edwin Uceta is a relief pitcher for the Tampa Bay Rays. In 2025 he struck out 103 batters over 76.0 innings across 70 appearances, going 10-3. His ERA of 3.79 was 8.9% lower than the league average of 4.16 — 8th of 16 on his team, and 236th of 542 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.69 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 35.6% of swings (18.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 8.4% of the batters he faced and struck out 32.1%. His 0.8 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.
