hammerhead johnson Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Apr 12, 2006 -> 06:27 PM) I'm not sure, whatever ESPN uses. There are also several other fairly effective starters with WHIPS above 1.2, like Freddy, Vazquez, Sabathia, and Webb. The 1.20 range is damn good. But if you're at 1.45 like Capuano and Davis? You suck, and there is absolutely no doubt about that. Keep in mind that I'm looking strictly at road numbers in this particular case.

Put them in Houston, and they're just as wack as the other guys in their 3-4-5. But they pitch in Milwaukee, and people (for whatever reason) don't realize that Miller Park is a pitching haven, so I dunno. SO what? They pitch in half their games there dont they? Ohka put up good starting pitching numbers in other stadiums as well. Freddy Garcia pitches better on the road than at home, does that makes him garbage? Seriously, its admirable that you like arguing just for the sake of arguing, but the rotation in Milwaukee is probably the 2nd best in their division. Which is good enough to make them a favorite.

You know, because it is soooo silly that I only brought up WHIP numbers. :rolly Chris Capuano 2005 Splits: 1.45 Road WHIP vs. 1.33 Home WHIP .280 Road BAA v. .235 Home BAA 4.30 Road ERA vs. 3.70 Home ERA Doug Davis 2005 Splits: 1.44 Road WHIP vs. 1.20 Home WHIP .256 Road BAA vs. .218 Home BAA 4.50 Road ERA vs. 3.40 Home ERA Toma Ohka's home numbers: .290 BAA 1.45 WHIP Learn about baseball stadiums. See which parks are pitchers havens. Miller Park would qualify. Check the effing stats FOR TEH LOVE OF GOD. BTW Ohka has 11 IP in Miller park, nice sample size. And once again, what is the problem with them being good at home and worse on the road? Is it too out of the question to think that they follow the norm of being better in their home park? As far as rotations in their divisionm they are probably the 2nd best only to ST Louis IMO, which could win them the division or the wild card no problem.

Its obviously that no matter what I say, or post, you wont budge or even take into account the other half of the argument, may its carryover from your NBA opinions. As far as parks go, and which is a hitting park etc, I looked up the 2005 stats on that, and it appears Miller Park was ranked 16th out of 30 as far as park factor. PF = ((homeRS + homeRA)/(homeG)) / ((roadRS + roadRA)/(roadG)) Considering that a number below 1.0 coincides with a favorable environment for a pitcher, Miller park comes in as the first stadium in that side of the chart at .992. Just below Wrigley field. Your "hitters haven" minute maid park comes in 23rd at a .949 which makes it one of the best pitchers parks. Of course the correlation could be because of the pitching staff, but the same could be said for Miller Park. Miller Park isnt exactly the pitchers paradise you made it out to be, as it falls just under Wrigley field in PF which is regarded as a hitters park. IN fact in 2004 Miller Park was known as a hitters park with a 1.004 PF rating ranking them 11th. Now addressing your generalization about how the white sox pitchers should be better away from their "hitters park." I only point to Mark Buehrle's 2005 numbers where he had a 2.48 ERA 1.06 WHIP at home and a 3.86 ERA and 1.33 on the road. Is this because he is only good in a certain park, or because its easier for pitcher to throw at home? You decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, both of those guys have a lot more talent than Ortiz, which is pretty obvious by looking at their strikeout totals and BAA. I used that comparison to say it was a bit of a fluke and that he probably should have won more like 14. That's part of my point. The only other team in the division that really has more than 2 good starters is St. Louis (and I guess the Cubs if they ever get healthy, but we know that's a stretch). It is possible that their ERA's jump this year, but Davis has been fairly good for two years running, and Capuano is young enough that he can improve it. I remember saying the same thing about Carlos Zambrano a couple of years ago, and we know how that turned out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrigley field has statistically been a great hitters park, especially with the wind blowing out and the short gaps. And the park stats do tell alot, even though there could be a correlation with the pitching staffs. But It is easier to pitch at home, no matter what park you play in. Mark shows that in his dominance in a hitters park, and his almost pedestrian numbers on the road last year. With the Brewers, they have 3 young pitchers this year, and they will definately pitch better with a home crowd. Not to mention, in that division there are probably 3 hitters parks in Cinci, Chicago, St Louis, maybe even Hou. Of course their road splits may not be that great. Fact is, the NL central is weak IMO. The Brewers right now, have the 2nd best rotation in the division until the cubs are healthy. Not to mention they have several young position players that are improving every year. This is why they are picked to be a sleeper. Last year, they finished in 3rd place and were over .500 for the first time in a long time. Their upward trend and having a decently complete pitching staff with a good closer is why they have a chance to surprise people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Apr 12, 2006 -> 10:09 AM) Zoom, all three were Top 15 in the majors last year: Zambrano 1.15 WHIP Buehrle 1.18 WHIP Oswalt 1.20 WHIP I must say that I'm stunned by your post. WHIP is so much better than ERA that it's not even funny. My ass. A guy whose a damn good pitcher may walk more than the usual batter and therefor his WHIP may be higher, but he could have stellar stuff and therefor people never get the key hits off him. Look at Millwood last season, he had runners on but he flat out pitches better with runnres on. Sure ERA tends to fluctuate year to year based on luck in a sense, but you don't need a very low WHIP to be a good pitcher. It helps, but its definately not a necessity. Bottom line what wins games, ERA (Runs allowed) or WHIP. You don't get a W because you gave up just 5 hits but also 5 runs. However if you give up 15 hits/walks and only give up 3 runs, well thats the result that matters and if people are posting a consistently good ERA year in year out, than I could give two s***s about what there whip is. I also think people drastically overlook home road splits. Fact is guys sometimes pitch better at certain places than others and there are plenty of people who have better stats at home becuase its there home park and they are more comfortable pithcing in front of there fans, etc. Other pitchers may struggle at there home park because for whatever reason the way they pitch doesn't fit in well for a ball park (maybe a pitcher who really like hammering the ball inside would struggle at Fenway because right handers would be able to get a lot of pulled homers, however at other parks he wouldn't suffer from that. Fact is I can tell people if someone is a good or bad pitcher with my eyes. Stats only back up whether he's actually succeeding or not and some people drastically overlook stats (in fact I think most statty guys do exactly that). And because of it they oow and awe stupid things. For example they appreciate a guy with a .400 OBP yet a .240 AVG over someone with a .300 AVG, a .350 OBP, and a lower OPS than the prior hitter (or at least some do). Thats just stupid, fact is while walks can get you on base, hits are what drives guys in and they don't always go for just one base (plus walks can move guys one base, hits can move guys 2 bases quite often, sometimes more, sometimes less). Hence the reason I think statiticians everywhere over-rate OBP and underrate AVG. If OBP was such a tell all you'd have some different teams in the playoffs this past few years. The Sox wouldn't have won the world series, the Angels wouldn't have made the playoffs, Jeff Francouer wouldn't be a solid player (with a lot of upside)...etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Apr 12, 2006 -> 10:19 AM) Yeah, but the guy who allows the fewest baserunners is the best. If you're walking too many guys, you're playing with fire, and it doesn't matter how good your stuf is...you're gonna get hammered at times. You can't be pinpoint with every single pitch, and even if you are, there are a lot of unbelievably talented hitters in this league that will get to you. And if anyone learned anything from the Top 20 WHIP list I maintained last year, the best of the best show up on that list ALWAYS. Now, on a Top 20 ERA list, that is never the case. ERA is influenced WAY too much by the stadium that you pitch in. No the guy who wins 20 games and puts up a good ERA is the best. I realize Wins are an elusive stat but thats what you get paid to do...WIN Games. Sure you can make a point that a guy who wins 22 with a poor ERA got a little lucky, but he still got the wins and thats what this game is about. You don't award Cy Youngs on WHIP.

Also Miller Park apparently is one of the hardest stadiums to get a hit in, which definatley could point to the pitchers being more dominant at home.
