Sean Douglass was a starting pitcher for the Detroit Tigers. In 2005 he struck out 55 batters over 87.1 innings across 18 appearances, 16 of them starts, going 5-5. His ERA of 5.56 was 29.7% higher than the league average of 4.29 — 12th of 16 on his team, and 349th of 442 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.90 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 19.8% of swings (9.1% of every pitch he threw), walked 8.8% of the batters he faced and struck out 14.7%. His 0.3 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 2005 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.
