Yohendrick Piñango is a left fielder for the Toronto Blue Jays. In 2026 he hit 5 home runs and knocked in 20 RBIs, notching 44 hits across 180 plate appearances in 58 games. His batting average was .260, 6.9% higher than the league average of .244. He reached base at a .306 clip and slugged .396, for an OPS of .702, 2.4% lower than the league mark of .719 — 5th of 15 on his team, and 214th of 417 among MLB batters with 100+ plate appearances. He averaged 90.9 mph off the bat, hit 45.6% of balls in play at 95 mph or better, barrelled 8.0% of them and made contact on 74.4% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 94 wRC+ puts his offence 6% below average. That comes to 0.2 dbWAR — -1.3 runs with the bat, -0.2 on the bases, -2.3 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.
