Jake Odorizzi was a starting pitcher for the Houston Astros. In 2022 he struck out 86 batters over 106.1 innings across 22 appearances, 22 of them starts, going 6-6. His ERA of 4.40 was 10.9% higher than the league average of 3.97 — the worst on his team, and 351st of 546 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.28 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 22.2% of swings (11.1% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.7% of the batters he faced and struck out 19.0%. His 0.9 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.
