STAT LINE: 41 G, 39 IP, 31 K, 14 BB, 3.23 ERA, 3.39 FIP
His ERA was 3.23 (121 ERA+) and his FIP was 3.39. Those aren’t great numbers, but they do generally make him a good reliever to have on a baseball team. The Giants, like any team, could always use more good relievers. Hooray for good relievers! Hooray for Mark Melancon!
