Think of it this way: you know how on offense there are two primary components: getting on base and hitting for power?

The OBP and SLG of OPS? Well, the inverse works for pitching. On-base is primary. Liriano has been good, but not great at preventing on-base. But he has been *otherworldly* at preventing slugging. In total, he's been fantastic.

Yes, I know. His slugging against is solid. - groiny Aug 13, 12:37 2
- If he had a 1.5 WHIP. Maybe. The difference between 1.26, 1.24 and 1.25 is trivial. (Liriano vs Pavano vs Sabathia) - musubi Aug 13, 12:46 1
  - right, but the difference between 1.26 and .98 or 1.07 is huge. - groiny Aug 13, 12:47
