Alex Faedo is a relief pitcher for the Detroit Tigers. In 2024 he struck out 55 batters over 57.1 innings across 37 appearances, going 5-3. His ERA of 3.61 was 11.5% lower than the league average of 4.08 — 12th of 21 on his team, and 208th of 541 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.91 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 31.1% of swings (14.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 11.4% of the batters he faced and struck out 22.4%. 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.
