Cesár Ramos is a relief pitcher for the Texas Rangers. In 2016 he struck out 27 batters over 47.2 innings across 16 appearances, going 3-3. His ERA of 6.04 was 44.2% higher than the league average of 4.19 — 13th of 15 on his team, and 459th of 512 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 6.61 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 18.1% of swings (8.2% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.4% of the batters he faced and struck out 12.7%. His -1.0 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.
