Edwin Moreno was a relief pitcher for the San Diego Padres. In 2009 he struck out 15 batters over 22.1 innings across 19 appearances, going 1-3. His ERA of 4.84 was 11.9% higher than the league average of 4.32 — 16th of 20 on his team, and 316th of 484 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.78 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 25.6% of swings (9.8% of every pitch he threw), walked 13.9% of the batters he faced and struck out 13.9%. 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.
