Trever Miller was a relief pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals. In 2011 he struck out 12 batters over 21.1 innings across 48 appearances, going 0-1. His ERA of 3.80 was 3.7% lower than the league average of 3.94 — 10th of 13 on his team, and 234th of 457 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.09 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 19.2% of swings (8.2% of every pitch he threw), walked 11.9% of the batters he faced and struck out 11.9%. His -0.2 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.
