Kody Funderburk is a relief pitcher for the Minnesota Twins. In 2026 he struck out 31 batters over 37.0 innings across 38 appearances, going 3-1. His ERA of 2.92 was 30.1% lower than the league average of 4.18 — the best on his team, and 100th of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.98 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 21.6% of swings (9.3% of every pitch he threw), walked 13.5% of the batters he faced and struck out 20.0%. His 0.3 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.
