Aaron Sele was a relief pitcher for the New York Mets. In 2007 he struck out 29 batters over 53.2 innings across 34 appearances, going 3-2. His ERA of 5.37 was 20.0% higher than the league average of 4.47 — 13th of 16 on his team, and 357th of 484 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.66 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 11.1% of swings (4.8% of every pitch he threw), walked 8.4% of the batters he faced and struck out 11.6%. 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.

Not in the 2007 data: pitch types, recorded in every park from 2008. The play-by-play goes back to 2005, but the measurements on each pitch and batted ball arrived later, so the panels built from them are left off this season.
