In response to "Think of it this way: you know how on offense there are two primary components: getting on base and hitting for power?" by musubi

Yes, I know. His slugging against is solid.

still puts more runners on than 23 other AL pitchers. Those runners COULD turn into runs, Homers and doubles aside.

There sure are plenty of stats to draw info from, but you both are falling in love with the BAPIP and slugging, which is nice, but the over effectiveness is generally valued by how many guys get on base against him.

This is like the reverse Adam Dunn debate.

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
