Yimi García is a relief pitcher for the Toronto Blue Jays. In 2025 he struck out 25 batters over 21.0 innings across 22 appearances, going 1-2. His ERA of 3.86 was 7.2% lower than the league average of 4.16 — 8th of 17 on his team, and 251st of 542 among MLB pitchers with 20+ innings. Stripping out defence, his 3.85 FIP suggests the ERA was no fluke. He missed bats on 30.7% of swings (13.9% of every pitch he threw), walked 13.3% of the batters he faced and struck out 27.8%. 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.
