Given that he has a new splitter that makes him a much better pitcher, I must assume he decided not to throw the splitter in this game. Why would he decide to do this?

How would that help?</i> Something that allows us to track velocity and trajectory off the bat, the way we now can from the pitcher's release, would allow us to better judge when batters are hitting well as opposed to getting lucky.

You see, if they only gave up a combined 100 runs in a season for a combined $19M...then they are earning way too much at $190K per run given up. By giving up 200 runs they are making a modest $95K per run given up. Those numbers are examples, but you get the point. Washburn and Batista are thinking they are earning their money.
