Juan Gutierrez was a relief pitcher for the San Francisco Giants. In 2014 he struck out 44 batters over 63.2 innings across 61 appearances, going 1-2. His ERA of 3.96 was 5.8% higher than the league average of 3.74 — 10th of 13 on his team, and 282nd of 477 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.03 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 19.3% of swings (9.3% of every pitch he threw), walked 6.0% of the batters he faced and struck out 16.4%. 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.
