Jarrod Washburn was a starting pitcher for the Seattle Mariners. In 2009 he struck out 100 batters over 176.0 innings across 28 appearances, 28 of them starts, going 9-9. His ERA of 3.78 was 12.4% lower than the league average of 4.32 — 7th of 16 on his team, and 164th of 484 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.58 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 16.2% of swings (7.5% of every pitch he threw), walked 6.8% of the batters he faced and struck out 13.8%. His 1.5 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.
