Austin Adams was a relief pitcher for the Oakland Athletics. In 2024 he struck out 53 batters over 41.1 innings across 56 appearances, going 1-2. His ERA of 3.92 was 3.9% lower than the league average of 4.08 — 10th of 23 on his team, and 274th of 541 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.47 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 35.3% of swings (14.7% of every pitch he threw), walked 12.0% of the batters he faced and struck out 27.7%. His 0.1 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.
