Samuel Deduno is a relief pitcher for the Houston Astros. In 2015 he struck out 17 batters over 21.0 innings across 9 appearances, going 0-1. His ERA of 6.86 was 73.1% higher than the league average of 3.96 — the worst on his team, and 493rd of 513 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.09 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 21.1% of swings (9.2% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.4% of the batters he faced and struck out 17.7%. 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.
