Warming Bernabel is a first baseman for the Colorado Rockies. In 2025 he hit 4 home runs and knocked in 14 RBIs, notching 35 hits across 146 plate appearances in 39 games. His batting average was .252, 2.7% higher than the league average of .245. He reached base at a .288 clip and slugged .410, for an OPS of .698, 3.0% lower than the league mark of .719 — 5th of 19 on his team, and 225th of 461 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 85.4 mph off the bat, hit 32.5% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 1.8% of them and made contact on 79.2% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 81 wRC+ puts his offence 19% below average. That comes to -0.0 dbWAR — -1.6 runs with the bat, -0.4 on the bases, -2.9 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.

A barrel is a batted ball whose exit velocity and launch angle have historically produced at least a .500 average and 1.500 slugging — 98 mph within 26–30°, widening to 8–50° by 116 mph. Reconstructed from Statcast's published anchor points, which reproduces them exactly; the interior is within a degree. Sweet spot (8–32°) is an exact definition.

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.
