Akeel Morris was a relief pitcher for the Los Angeles Angels. In 2018 he struck out 7 batters over 14.0 innings across 9 appearances, going 0-0. His ERA of 5.79 was 39.4% higher than the league average of 4.15. Stripping out defence, his 6.66 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 17.4% of swings (7.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 12.3% of the batters he faced and struck out 10.8%. His -0.3 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.
