Mitch Atkins was a starting pitcher for the Baltimore Orioles. In 2011 he struck out 7 batters over 10.2 innings across 3 appearances, 3 of them starts, going 0-0. His ERA of 8.44 was 114.0% higher than the league average of 3.94. Stripping out defence, his 8.93 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 14.7% of swings (6.1% of every pitch he threw), walked 5.4% of the batters he faced and struck out 12.5%. His -0.5 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.
