Tim Redding was a starting pitcher for the New York Mets. In 2009 he struck out 76 batters over 120.0 innings across 30 appearances, 17 of them starts, going 3-6. His ERA of 5.10 was 18.0% higher than the league average of 4.32 — 14th of 18 on his team, and 347th of 484 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.08 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 15.7% of swings (6.8% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.5% of the batters he faced and struck out 14.5%. 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.
