Demarcus Evans is a relief pitcher for the Texas Rangers. In 2021 he struck out 33 batters over 26.1 innings across 25 appearances, going 0-2. His ERA of 5.13 was 20.2% higher than the league average of 4.27 — 15th of 22 on his team, and 417th of 567 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.58 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 28.2% of swings (13.2% of every pitch he threw), walked 13.3% of the batters he faced and struck out 27.5%. 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.

How these are computed

wOBA uses linear weights measured from this season's own play-by-play rather than published constants, and wRC+ is park-adjusted against that same league. dbWAR is our own open implementation — not fWAR or bWAR — and the full derivation, including its simplifications, is on the methodology page.
