Jose Mijares was a relief pitcher for the San Francisco Giants. In 2013 he struck out 54 batters over 49.0 innings across 60 appearances, going 0-3. His ERA of 4.22 was 9.3% higher than the league average of 3.87 — 12th of 18 on his team, and 325th of 496 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.05 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 22.3% of swings (10.4% of every pitch he threw), walked 8.5% of the batters he faced and struck out 22.9%. His 0.7 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.

Box-score and rate statistics only. wOBA, wRC+, FIP and dbWAR are measured against a full league season, and a postseason is a few teams playing each other for a month, so they are not computed for October.
