Chris Rodriguez is a relief pitcher for the Los Angeles Angels. In 2021 he struck out 29 batters over 29.2 innings across 15 appearances, going 2-1. His ERA of 3.64 was 14.7% lower than the league average of 4.27 — 6th of 23 on his team, and 212th of 567 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.14 FIP suggests he pitched better than his ERA shows. He missed bats on 25.1% of swings (10.5% of every pitch he threw), walked 11.2% of the batters he faced and struck out 21.6%. His 0.5 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.
