Jon Coutlangus was a relief pitcher for the Cincinnati Reds. In 2007 he struck out 38 batters over 41.0 innings across 64 appearances, going 4-2. His ERA of 4.39 was 1.9% lower than the league average of 4.47 — 6th of 18 on his team, and 239th of 484 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.61 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 25.4% of swings (11.5% of every pitch he threw), walked 14.4% of the batters he faced and struck out 20.3%. 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.

Not in the 2007 data: pitch types, recorded in every park from 2008. The play-by-play goes back to 2005, but the measurements on each pitch and batted ball arrived later, so the panels built from them are left off this season.
