Danny Salazar was a starting pitcher for the Cleveland Indians. In 2019 he struck out 2 batters over 4.0 innings across 1 appearance, 1 of them starts, going 0-1. His ERA of 4.50 was level with the league average of 4.51. Stripping out defence, his 10.96 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 12.5% of swings (4.5% of every pitch he threw), walked 17.6% of the batters he faced and struck out 11.8%. 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.

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.

wOBA uses linear weights measured from this season's own play-by-play rather than published constants, and wRC+ is park-adjusted against that same league. dbWAR is our own open implementation — not fWAR or bWAR — and the full derivation, including its simplifications, is on the methodology page.
