Sean White was a relief pitcher for the Seattle Mariners. In 2010 he struck out 15 batters over 34.1 innings across 38 appearances, going 0-1. His ERA of 5.24 was 28.5% higher than the league average of 4.08 — 12th of 15 on his team, and 378th of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.68 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 17.3% of swings (8.3% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.3% of the batters he faced and struck out 10.0%. 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.
