Trevor Stephan is a relief pitcher for the Cleveland Guardians. In 2023 he struck out 75 batters over 68.2 innings across 71 appearances, going 7-7. His ERA of 4.06 was 6.2% lower than the league average of 4.33 — 12th of 18 on his team, and 250th of 550 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.56 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 30.6% of swings (15.2% of every pitch he threw), walked 8.8% of the batters he faced and struck out 25.5%. His 0.9 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.
