Blake Hunt is a catcher for the San Diego Padres. In 2026 he hit 0 home runs and knocked in 0 RBIs, notching 0 hits across 3 plate appearances in 1 game. His batting average was .000, 100.0% lower than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .000 clip and slugged .000, for an OPS of .000, 100.0% lower than the league mark of .719. He made contact on 42.9% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his -127 wRC+ puts his offence 227% below average. That comes to -0.1 dbWAR — -0.8 runs with the bat, +0.0 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.

Situational hitting
How Blake Hunt hits by base state, outs, score and late-game pressure — each read against his own season line.

Runners on includes runners in scoring position, which is the convention every reference uses. Rows under 25 plate appearances are marked thin — at that size a rate moves several dozen points on one hit. Counted from play-by-play, 2026.

Head to head
Put Blake Hunt beside up to three others.
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.
