Eddie Kunz was a relief pitcher for the New York Mets. In 2008 he struck out 1 batter over 2.2 innings across 4 appearances, going 0-0. His ERA of 13.50 was 212.2% higher than the league average of 4.32. Stripping out defence, his 9.51 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 5.0% of swings (1.8% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.1% of the batters he faced and struck out 7.1%. 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.
