2026 review

Robert Stock was a rotation fill-in whose stuff never held up: over 8 games and 7 GS he posted a 5.93 ERA and 1.75 WHIP in 30.1 IP, with a 19.7 K% and a 10.2 BB% over 147 BF, going 1-3 with 2 HR allowed. NYM selected his contract Aug 2, and he threw 26.0 IP across 6 games in Aug before just 4.1 IP over 2 games in Sep, when a finger numbness issue sent him to the 15-day IL on Sep 16, retroactive to Sep 13, with no activation on record through Sep 27 and 14 regular-season days missed. Undrafted in NFBC drafts, he finished 1078th of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank, 707th of 811 pitchers, and 173rd of 236 SPs. His 5.93 ERA ran 0.84 above his 5.09 xERA over 147 BF. The TDK LABS card opened Aug 2 treating him as an emergency arm getting his first look back after recovering from thoracic outlet surgery, still leaning on that same uncertain track record by Aug 5, then by Sep 5 had shifted to calling him a fringe reliever picking up another turn in the rotation before the Sep 26 line noted the finger numbness that had him on the IL.
