Julio DePaula was a relief pitcher for the Minnesota Twins. In 2007 he struck out 8 batters over 20.0 innings across 16 appearances, going 0-1. His ERA of 8.55 was 91.1% higher than the league average of 4.47 — the worst on his team, and 477th of 484 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 7.64 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 15.1% of swings (6.4% of every pitch he threw), walked 10.1% of the batters he faced and struck out 8.1%. His -0.6 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.
