Daniel Gossett was a starting pitcher for the Oakland Athletics. In 2018 he struck out 12 batters over 24.1 innings across 5 appearances, 5 of them starts, going 0-3. His ERA of 5.18 was 24.8% higher than the league average of 4.15 — 18th of 21 on his team, and 409th of 530 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.95 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 18.3% of swings (8.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.8% of the batters he faced and struck out 11.8%. 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.
