Jim Brower was a relief pitcher for the New York Yankees. In 2007 he struck out 1 batter over 3.1 innings across 3 appearances, going 0-0. His ERA of 13.50 was 201.8% higher than the league average of 4.47. Stripping out defence, his 5.34 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 11.8% of swings (4.8% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.5% of the batters he faced and struck out 4.8%. His -0.0 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.

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.

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.
