Did they really put a positive spin on a 2-10 record and a 5.11 ERA with sabermetrics?

lol yea. Basically saying he's only viable in a pitchers park.

I've never seen someone so staunchly oppose advanced statistics. It must kill him that Heyward's WAR is still significantly higher than Freeman's.

He's been near the top in pitching despite having a meh record. W/L record is a really bad way to evaluate a pitcher. ERA is decent, and more reliable than W/L, but you can really dig into sabremetrics to get a good read on tendencies. I could be wrong, but I see it as a way for stats to evaluate a pitcher without the results or the consequences of his defense. BABIP, K/9, BB/K, WHIP, FIP, Ground ball rate, line drive rate, fly ball rate...all good stuff.

Considering Freeman is a much better player just proves WAR can't be trusted, along with most sabermetrics.

Ignorant

defensive sabermetrics are extremely arbitrary, and that is what a lot of FIP is based upon indirectly. To think that any batted ball is a design of luck is kind of silly.
In BMac's case, he leads the NL in hits against(as well as Earned runs). ANd that is completely ignored in FIP
and while his strikeouts are up(that has been his saving grace in his FIP), he has always been more efficient when "pitching to contract"

and if you think Chase field is prone to HRs... Yankee stadium is the 2nd most homer friendly park in the MLB
Posted on 7/3/14 at 2:32 pm to Lester Earl
yeah yeah yea
BMac isn't the type of pitcher I would want in Yankee stadium but as a fan of his I would be excited. wonder if the A's or Seattle make a run at him
