Tim Herrin is a relief pitcher for the Cleveland Guardians. In 2026 he struck out 33 batters over 39.1 innings across 48 appearances, going 1-4. His ERA of 3.66 was 12.3% lower than the league average of 4.18 — 7th of 14 on his team, and 201st of 467 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 4.87 FIP suggests that his ERA had some help behind him. He missed bats on 30.4% of swings (13.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 13.5% 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.
