Shawn Dubin is a relief pitcher for the Houston Astros. In 2025 he struck out 28 batters over 33.2 innings across 30 appearances, going 2-0. His ERA of 5.08 was 22.1% higher than the league average of 4.16 — 15th of 20 on his team, and 417th of 542 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.95 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 20.7% of swings (9.3% of every pitch he threw), walked 7.6% of the batters he faced and struck out 19.3%. His -0.1 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.
