 If the Knicks/Nets were good - would get invested in the playoffs/Finals? |

"Team X is 54-12 all time when Y and Z occurs." Because that has any bearing at all on the game I'm watching right now.

what about 'On Base Percentage' folks? all I heard after Carlos Santana signed a ridiculous $60 mil contract for 3 years - and he was batting around the Mendoza Line all year - defenders state - 'Yeah - but he can draw walks and get on base!!!!!' People bash Klentak - if they don't get Harper/Machado - he still gets an A+ for just ridding the team of that Albatross worthless contract (granted he signed him  ) and JP Crawford.................... |

blood alcohol content? I've gained a tremendous appreciation for the show Brockmire over the years - alcoholic baseball commentator - it's hysterical if you appreciate dry humor/life/baseball |

QBR and WHIP! Go! WHIP is just walks and hits in innings pitched. A legit stat that you don't need a PhD from MIT to compute. Baseball thought for eons that walks didn't count. They do. Not a whit of difference between a single with no one on and a walk with no one on. Actually, the walk might be better as it adds to a pitch count. It's not BABIP OR WHATTHEFUK.

What if there's a runner on 1st and 2nd. The pitcher gets pulled when the count is 3-0. Relief pitcher comes in and gives up a the 4th ball - a passed ball by the catcher as all runners advance and the 2 on base (per the previous pitcher) score - does this contribute to his WHIP - or the previous pitchers. What if the bases are loaded. Pitcher gets pulled. Relief pitcher comes in and there's a Texas League Blooper in shallow center where the 2nd baseman, SS and CF all collide and it results in an error with all three runners on base scoring - does this contribute to his WHIP? - what about the guy who reaches on base from the Texas League Blooper? Is this a no this it's just 'hits' and 'errors' aren't accounted for or previous runners. I feel like I'm in Calculus class again. |

It's not unheard of but its rare. Might see it two or three times a season.
And WHIP does not include errors.
Look at pitchers who have put in ridiculous WHIP (not counting 19th Century pitchers). All time record, Pedro Martinez in 2000, .737. Pedro was on another planet in 2000, a hell of a lot better than the 18-6 record. Next, Greg Maddux in 1995, .811. Maddux toyed with batters that year.
The old standard, ERA can be misleading, especially for relievers. Closer comes in, bases loaded, no outs. He gets two outs, gives up a base clearing double then gets the third out. Disastrous outing and his ERA goes down.

What if the bases are juiced..... Pitcher gets pulled. Reliever comes in and walks the man on 3rd home ................ Who's WHIP does that effect? |

But the baserunner walked in wasn't his man - only the batter going to 1st. How's that logical? |

A pitcher enters the game from the bullpen in the bottom of the 8th traveling 7mph
There's a man on 2nd and 3rd.
Pitcher intentionally walks a batter hoping for a double play.
Bases Juiced.
Man steals home - while stealing home an error ensues from the pitcher trying to catch him stealing and the ball alludes the catcher resulting in the two other runners (the 1st who wasn't his responsibility either initially) to score
Does this effect his WHIP?

But the baserunner walked in wasn't his man - only the batter going to 1st. How's that logical? Don't read more into it than there is. It's Walks and hits over innings pitched, period. Runs don't figure into it, earned or unearned. You could conceivably (I'm getting silly here) have a WHIP of 6.00 and an ERA of 0.00. Walk the bases loaded, give up three singles but the runner at 3rd gets thrown out at home for all three outs. Do you want a pitcher like that, no. A plethora of baserunners almost always score. |
