Albert Abreu is a relief pitcher for the New York Yankees. In 2023 he struck out 61 batters over 59.0 innings across 45 appearances, going 2-2. His ERA of 4.73 was 9.2% higher than the league average of 4.33 — 15th of 18 on his team, and 361st of 550 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 5.26 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 26.3% of swings (11.0% of every pitch he threw), walked 13.1% of the batters he faced and struck out 22.8%. 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.
