Rhylan Thomas is a right fielder for the Seattle Mariners. In 2025 he hit 0 home runs and knocked in 2 RBIs, notching 1 hit across 10 plate appearances in 3 games. His batting average was .125, 49.0% lower than the league average of .245. He reached base at a .200 clip and slugged .250, for an OPS of .450, 37.4% lower than the league mark of .719. He averaged 83.7 mph off the bat, hit 33.3% of balls in play at 95 mph or better and made contact on 95.0% of his swings. Adjusted for his ballpark and league, his 19 wRC+ puts his offence 81% below average. That comes to -0.1 dbWAR — -1.0 runs with the bat, -0.0 on the bases, -0.1 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.

Head to head
Put Rhylan Thomas beside up to three others.
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.
