Pressly
-
Last two weeks he has 3 saves, 5 Ks, 0.00 ERA, and a 0.86 WHIP
And for the year he has 1W, 7 Saves, 8K, a 2.70 ERA, and a 1.10 WHIP
And he drops from an 83 to a 78?
What are you guys smoking?

Are you talking about Ryan Pressly? He has been trash. Granted he has only pitched like 10 inn because he was on IL. But he is a heart attack every time he takes the mound.

As someone who watches a alot of astros baseball, I can say that when he comes into games I genuinely feel uneasy. He's had a rough year.

Wins, Saves and ERA doesn't do anything for upgrades. WHIP
doesn't directly either but H/9 and BB/9 contribute to WHIP I suppose -
Pressly: 9 hits 2 walks 8 strikeouts in 10 IP
K9 of 7.20 /BB9 of 1.80/ H9 of 8.10
K9 is low especially for a closer, H9 is way high (for anybody) BB9 is good if he was a starter should be closer to 1.00 for an RP/CP. -

K9 is low especially for a closer, H9 is way high (for anybody) BB9 is good if he was a starter should be closer to 1.00 for an RP/CP.This is the answer. Ratings for pitchers in general are highly dependent on the K/9 rating and it is even moreso the case for Relievers/closers.
The Cardinals had two perfect examples last year. Alex Reyes was phenomenal in the first half of the year last year but he remained low ranked because he didn't strike out a ton and allowed too many walk/hits. Did not matter that his ERA was miniscule.
For starters Adam Wainwright was 7th in the CY Young voting last year but only was an 81 in the game. Why? He does not strike out a ton of guys. He is a weak contact style pitcher.
