Just copying and pasting from another board:
I have a reliever in my current solo league who is rated four stars, 10/10/6 in talent (talent only, of course) and has put up some pretty damned dominating numbers in some categories, and awful numbers in others. It makes no sense. To wit, his most recent season:
126 IP, 115 H, 8 BB, 170 (!!)K. Just looking at that you would think that he was a demi-god reliever right? You would be wrong as he also allowed 20 doubles and 27 home runs which added up to 4.14 ERA. Now, really, similar to the "Dave Kingman eat your heart out" player in FJ's recent thread, this is just not at all a possibility. No pitcher that dominant with control that good is going to allow that many home runs. I mean, that's .6 BB and 12.1 K/9 which is better than Randy Johnson. Can you imagine RJ of the past few seasons allowing 45 homers in a season? No, because a pitcher with dominant stuff and great control doesn't give up a lot of home runs.
Damnit, this game can be so frustrating.
