Reading this table
FIP estimates what a pitcher's ERA would be given only the outcomes they control directly — strikeouts, walks, hit batters and home runs. FIP− indexes that against the league, so 100 is average and lower is better. dbWAR is our own open implementation, not fWAR or bWAR. See the full derivation →
