Scott Eyre was a relief pitcher for the Philadelphia Phillies. In 2009 he struck out 22 batters over 30.0 innings across 42 appearances, going 2-1. His ERA of 1.50 was 65.3% lower than the league average of 4.32 — the best on his team, and the second best among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.63 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 20.5% of swings (7.8% of every pitch he threw), walked 12.5% of the batters he faced and struck out 17.2%. His 0.1 dbWAR is built from that FIP rather than runs allowed, so it credits him for what he controls and not for the defence behind him.

Box-score and rate statistics only. wOBA, wRC+, FIP and dbWAR are measured against a full league season, and a postseason is a few teams playing each other for a month, so they are not computed for October.

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.
