August 28, 200719 yr He's just 13. Although he was a bit rude to the other stats Did not know that... (Assumed otherwise given his university sig) Agreed on the harsh treatment. WHIP doesn't deserve that. He's very nice once you get to know him. Hehehe
August 28, 200719 yr I echo what Fox has said so far, but I'll throw in another fact. If you go to Baseball Reference, you'll notice that there is a nice little option on the screen right below the section heading that reads "Neutralize Stats." This option allows you to analyze the same data in a modified way that puts all players on an even playing field with regard to park, league, and run support. For a more in depth explanation of what goes into this formula check out: http://www.baseball-reference.com/about/equiv_stats.shtml (1/4 of the way down, 'How Are Pitchers Adjusted?'). Let's look at Mulder and Burnett's adjusted stats: They look awfully similar to me.
August 28, 200719 yr Seeing that im here with a bunch of stat geeks, i would like to know one thing. What stat shows the reason AJ Burnett can never live up to his potential of being an 18-20 game winner? (injuries aside) You can't put injuries aside with AJ HE'S ALWAYS HURT. That's like saying injuries aside, why can't Rocco Baldelli lead the league in hits?

August 29, 200719 yr Don't forget that the Giants would also have Boof Bonser as a long reliever/spot starter/5th starter, AND Joe Nathan as a closer.
