Kevin Siegrist is a relief pitcher for the St. Louis Cardinals. In 2017 he struck out 43 batters over 39.1 innings across 46 appearances, going 1-1. His ERA of 4.81 was 10.3% higher than the league average of 4.36 — 13th of 15 on his team, and 354th of 527 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.38 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 26.4% of swings (11.0% of every pitch he threw), walked 12.8% of the batters he faced and struck out 25.0%. 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.
