Carlos Muniz was a relief pitcher for the New York Mets. In 2008 he struck out 16 batters over 23.1 innings across 18 appearances, going 1-1. His ERA of 5.40 was 24.9% higher than the league average of 4.32 — 14th of 16 on his team, and 379th of 482 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.15 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 17.0% of swings (7.0% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.0% of the batters he faced and struck out 16.0%. 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.
