Jhoulys Chacín was a relief pitcher for the Colorado Rockies. In 2022 he struck out 37 batters over 47.1 innings across 35 appearances, going 4-2. His ERA of 7.61 was 91.7% higher than the league average of 3.97 — the worst on his team, and 538th of 546 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.93 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 21.1% of swings (9.7% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.6% of the batters he faced and struck out 16.9%. 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.
