Dan Jennings was a relief pitcher for the Washington Nationals. In 2019 he struck out 9 batters over 4.2 innings across 8 appearances, going 1-2. His ERA of 13.50 was 199.6% higher than the league average of 4.51. Stripping out defence, his 7.29 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 31.9% of swings (11.2% of every pitch he threw), walked 21.9% of the batters he faced and struck out 28.1%. 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.
