Brian Tallet was a relief pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals. In 2011 he struck out 10 batters over 13.1 innings across 19 appearances, going 0-2. His ERA of 9.45 was 139.7% higher than the league average of 3.94. Stripping out defence, his 7.45 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 19.4% of swings (8.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.6% of the batters he faced and struck out 13.7%. His -0.5 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.
