In MLB, no ... it is above average.
In the 2011 MLB season, the average ERA in the National League was 4.16 and in the American League was 4.43.
There have been seasons in MLB where the average ERA was 5+. In the AL, average ERA in 1996 was 5.00 and 1936 was 5.04. In the NL, average ERA was 5.33 in 1893. Those are the only three seasons in MLB where the average ERA was 5+.
In other levels of Baseball, 5.26 may be pretty good but not in MLB.
34% of 526= 34% * 526= 0.34 * 526= 178.84
5% of 526= 5% * 526= 0.05 * 526= 26.3
Not necessarily. A pitcher could have a decent ERA but give up several hits and walks an inning. An adequate way to evaluate a pitcher would be to look at his WHIP (walks and hits per inning pitched), along with ERA
