Selfish players pad their own stats. Stand up guys like Silva are generous and willing to help pad the stats of others.

Silva, that is.

“edit” doesn’t work if you walk away after hitting the post button.

to quote Larry Stone on the blog, "He is now 0-5, 8.03 in his last eight starts (40.1 ip, 36 er, 61 hits, five homers, .351 opponents average). He is a sinkerball pitcher who is too often throwing the ball thigh high, as Jim Riggleman put it. I'm no Leo Mazzone, but that's not good."

Like what I see out of RRS, especially his K/9 & HR/9. Thereâ€™s our #5 next year!

Also the lowest GB%, therefore his FB% is higher, so perhaps the low HR/9 is a bit fluky? Or does this somehow have more to do with his primarily being used in relief?

Numbers are slightly different for starters and relievers, but mere mortals actually aspire to Roy Corcoran’s ridiculous 72% batted ball rate.

So Washburn’s greatest attribute, his heightened skill, is that he walks slighlty fewer batters than league average? Otherwise, he’s below average, except for maybe grit and age.
