An ERA above 5.00 is generally considered below-average, and a pitcher with an ERA above 6.00 for a prolonged period of time is usually in danger of demotion to the bullpen or a lower league.

 Homerunweb -- Earned Run Average
As the basic statistical measure of a pitcher, ERA determines the average number of earned runs scored against a pitcher every nine innings; an earned run is a run that's the pitcher's fault, while an unearned run, which is usually the result of a fielding error, is not.
So, for example, a pitcher with a 3.50 ERA is expected to allow three and a half earned runs whenever he pitches a complete game.
To be eligible for the yearly ERA championship, a pitcher must have thrown at least one inning for every game his team played, usually 162.
