Dylan Smith is a relief pitcher for the San Francisco Giants. In 2026 he struck out 27 batters over 22.1 innings across 25 appearances, going 0-4. His ERA of 2.82 was 32.4% lower than the league average of 4.18 — the third best on his team, and 87th of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.58 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 27.3% of swings (13.5% of every pitch he threw), walked 11.2% of the batters he faced and struck out 27.6%. 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.
