Chad Kuhl was a relief pitcher for the Chicago White Sox. In 2024 he struck out 54 batters over 53.1 innings across 31 appearances, going 0-2. His ERA of 5.06 was 24.1% higher than the league average of 4.08 — 13th of 19 on his team, and 425th of 541 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.10 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 27.1% of swings (11.4% of every pitch he threw), walked 10.4% of the batters he faced and struck out 22.5%. 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.
