Elih Villanueva was a starting pitcher for the Florida Marlins. In 2011 he struck out 2 batters over 3.0 innings across 1 appearance, 1 of them starts, going 0-1. His ERA of 24.00 was 508.8% higher than the league average of 3.94. Stripping out defence, his 12.03 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 5.6% of swings (2.2% of every pitch he threw), walked 25.0% of the batters he faced and struck out 10.0%. His -0.3 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.

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.
