Pete Fairbanks is a relief pitcher for the Miami Marlins. In 2026 he struck out 57 batters over 41.1 innings across 46 appearances, going 4-5. His ERA of 6.31 is 51.1% higher than the league average of 4.18 — the second worst on his team, and 503rd of 538 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.60 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 31.9% of swings (14.4% of every pitch he threw), walked 11.5% of the batters he faced and struck out 31.1%. 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.
