Last time, I wrote about the weak correlation between ERA and a pitcher's W-L record. To illustrate this further, I decided to compare this correlation with some other correlations.
IP/GS is innings per start, K/GS is strikeouts per start, and WHIP is baserunners per inning.
Relative to these other stats, winning percentage has a weak correlation with ERA. Here's another table, similar to the one in my previous post.
Look at the trends. IP/GS, K/GS, and WHIP all have consistent increases or decreases when compared to ERA (except for the last K/GS row). Winning percentage clearly doesn't. 0 Comments:Post a Comment |
