Dan Haren was a starting pitcher for the Miami Marlins. In 2015 he struck out 132 batters over 187.1 innings across 32 appearances, 32 of them starts, going 11-9. His ERA of 3.60 was 9.1% lower than the league average of 3.96 — 9th of 20 on his team, and 203rd of 513 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.61 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 15.7% of swings (7.1% of every pitch he threw), walked 4.9% of the batters he faced and struck out 17.2%. His 0.7 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.

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.
