Complete games. They are NON-factor anymore. The managers are pussies as are starting pitchers!! It used to be VERY important but not now!!!

since hardly no one doesn't it anymore (for a variety of reasons), wouldn't that make it an underrated stat?

Saves is way more over rated than wins

The only thing worse than strikeout a hitter can do is hit into a double play

how is stiking out worse than hitting a popfly to 1st base? it's a fricking out. it counts just the same.

seriously?

ETA: If you put the ball in play, their is a better chance for something to happen. Runners move up, and error, etc.
