Ian Krol was a relief pitcher for the Detroit Tigers. In 2021 he struck out 18 batters over 18.2 innings across 18 appearances, going 0-0. His ERA of 4.34 was 1.7% higher than the league average of 4.27. Stripping out defence, his 3.92 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 23.8% of swings (11.5% of every pitch he threw), walked 9.3% of the batters he faced and struck out 20.9%. 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.
