Published Thursday, September 17, 2026

Jeffrey Springs has allowed 21 home runs in 65.4 innings this season — 2.89 per nine, against a league rate near 1.25. His ERA is 6.12. ERA is the number everyone quotes and it is the wrong one for a home run market: a low-ERA fly-ball pitcher gives up more homers than a higher-ERA groundballer, and ERA cannot tell them apart.
