Hans Crouse is a relief pitcher for the Los Angeles Angels. In 2024 he struck out 34 batters over 25.1 innings across 25 appearances, going 4-3. His ERA of 2.84 was 30.3% lower than the league average of 4.08 — the third best on his team, and 86th of 541 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.76 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 35.4% of swings (15.8% of every pitch he threw), walked 15.9% of the batters he faced and struck out 31.8%. 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.

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.
