Al Reyes was a relief pitcher for the Tampa Bay Rays. In 2008 he struck out 19 batters over 22.2 innings across 26 appearances, going 2-2. His ERA of 4.37 was 1.0% higher than the league average of 4.32 — 8th of 13 on his team, and 265th of 482 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.06 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 23.9% of swings (12.3% of every pitch he threw), walked 10.4% of the batters he faced and struck out 19.8%. 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.
