Greg Reynolds was a starting pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds. In 2013 he struck out 13 batters over 29.1 innings across 6 appearances, 5 of them starts, going 1-3. His ERA of 5.52 was 42.9% higher than the league average of 3.87 — 14th of 16 on his team, and 436th of 496 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.40 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 12.5% of swings (5.7% of every pitch he threw), walked 4.5% of the batters he faced and struck out 9.8%. 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.
