Anthony Ranaudo was a starting pitcher for the Chicago White Sox. In 2016 he struck out 18 batters over 31.1 innings across 9 appearances, 5 of them starts, going 1-1. His ERA of 9.48 was 126.2% higher than the league average of 4.19 — the worst on his team, and the second worst among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 8.06 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 13.2% of swings (6.1% of every pitch he threw), walked 13.2% of the batters he faced and struck out 11.9%. His -1.1 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.
