In response to "I'm not crowning him. That's the point. The streak is significant." by volnelk

lol, you just compared him to a 2 time Cy Young winner.

it is a nice stat, would it matter if he also walked 5 guys per start too?

He is a very good young arm, I am not arguing that.

Just to show that it isn't just random luck and that he is overall doing very well as well. Sure walks would be significant as well, but..... - volnelk Apr 3, 07:30 1
- In those 19 starts, he's pitched 104 innings.... - Will Hunting Apr 3, 07:33
It doesn't even take into account length of outing. Quality starts are kinda a crap stat too, but at least they're well defined. -- nm - Ender Apr 3, 07:27 2
- I would argue that it indirectly does, with the exception of injury. You don't really have short quality outings. -- nm - volnelk Apr 3, 07:33 1
  - to date, they remove him after 5, or likely 2 times through the batting order. - groiny Apr 3, 07:46
