Agustín Ramírez is a catcher for the Miami Marlins. In 2026 he hit 2 home runs and knocked in 14 RBIs, notching 29 hits across 140 plate appearances in 36 games. His batting average was .238, 2.4% lower than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .329 clip and slugged .344, for an OPS of .673, 6.5% lower than the league mark of .719 — 11th of 15 on his team, and 270th of 417 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 88.8 mph off the bat, hit 38.5% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 4.4% of them and made contact on 68.3% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 93 wRC+ puts his offence 7% below average. That comes to 0.3 dbWAR — -1.6 runs with the bat, -0.0 on the bases, -0.2 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.
