Denny Bautista was a relief pitcher for the San Francisco Giants. In 2010 he struck out 44 batters over 33.2 innings across 31 appearances, going 2-0. His ERA of 3.74 was 8.3% lower than the league average of 4.08 — 9th of 13 on his team, and 192nd of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.68 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 30.9% of swings (12.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 17.2% of the batters he faced and struck out 28.0%. His -0.1 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.
