[QUOTE="Longfrog, post: 567209, member: 26611"] QUOTE(Houston Frog @ Jun 2 2010, 07:57 AM) [snapback]567076[/snapback] Winkler and Maxwell both have a better ERA than Purke (if I remember correctly). I'm not saying that they are both better than Purke because of this, but if we're going to be using stats as our reasoning for who to throw and when, I would certainly lean more heavily on ERA than win/loss record. Saying a pitcher is 12-0 sounds cool, and is certainly impressive, but win/loss record is one of the most overrated stats in baseball. True, but ERA isn't that great either. Here are WHIPs, Opp's SLG and K rates for the three starters (racing through this at lunch, so my math could be off)... __________WHIP____SLG___K/AB Purke______1.12___0.299__0.338 Max_______1.18___0.343__0.242 Wink______1.20___0.411__0.208 All three are awesome, but Purke stands out as clearly the most dominant.
