Ross Stripling is a starting pitcher for the Oakland Athletics. In 2024 he struck out 49 batters over 85.1 innings across 22 appearances, 14 of them starts, going 2-11. His ERA of 6.01 was 47.4% higher than the league average of 4.08 — the second worst on his team, and 488th of 541 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.89 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 16.9% of swings (8.1% of every pitch he threw), walked 5.8% of the batters he faced and struck out 12.9%. 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.
