Nick Hagadone is a relief pitcher for the Cleveland Indians. In 2015 he struck out 28 batters over 27.1 innings across 36 appearances, going 0-1. His ERA of 4.28 was 8.0% higher than the league average of 3.96 — 12th of 15 on his team, and 335th of 513 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.83 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 24.4% of swings (12.5% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.7% of the batters he faced and struck out 22.6%. His 0.2 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.

How these are computed

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.
