Warner Madrigal was a relief pitcher for the Texas Rangers. In 2009 he struck out 5 batters over 12.2 innings across 13 appearances, going 0-0. His ERA of 9.95 was 130.2% higher than the league average of 4.32. Stripping out defence, his 7.44 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 13.8% of swings (6.1% of every pitch he threw), walked 17.9% of the batters he faced and struck out 7.5%. His -0.4 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.
