Gabriel Moya is a relief pitcher for the Minnesota Twins. In 2018 he struck out 31 batters over 36.1 innings across 35 appearances, going 3-1. His ERA of 4.71 was 13.4% higher than the league average of 4.15 — 14th of 23 on his team, and 369th of 530 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.76 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 21.9% of swings (10.7% of every pitch he threw), walked 8.2% of the batters he faced and struck out 19.5%. His -0.0 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.
