2026 review

Dylan Dodd was a swing-and-miss lefty reliever who missed real time but posted the best rates of his role: a 2.54 ERA and 0.91 WHIP over 49.2 IP for ATL in 48 games, a 27.3 K% and 7.2 BB% over 194 BF, with 4 W, 1 L, 2 SV and 14 HLD, and his 14.2 SwStr% over 779 pitches was the 46th highest of 517 pitchers with 100+ BF. He was optioned Mar 20, recalled Apr 12, optioned Apr 13, recalled Apr 21, then placed on the 15-day IL Apr 23 (retroactive to Apr 22) with left thoracic spine inflammation, took a rehab assignment May 5 and was activated May 19 after missing 27 regular-season days. Drafted at NFBC ADP rank 520 as a rare pick, he finished 246th of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank and 43rd of 575 RP. His ERA ran 0.56 below his 3.10 xERA over 194 BF. By early Jul the TDK LABS card had him back from the injured list throwing what it called elite stuff; by mid Sep it had him as a middle reliever in a mostly linear pen showing real process work from recent pitch-shape tinkering, and by late Sep as a bulk relief arm whose rare save came from closer fatigue rather than a role change.
