Reliever's WHIP

pumph · 05-02-2003, 05:26 AM

I know what WHIP is. But in my online league (using OOTP5) under the column for WHIP for relief pitchers, a whole number appears for each player. It does not seem to correspond to anything I can find in each pitcher's statistics.

Each time I think I have it figured out, I prove my theory wrong.

The WHIPs for starters are all fine.

Anyone know what that whole number shown under WHIP for relief pitchers is a indicator of?

It's WHIP, but there's an error in the formula, so that instead of dividing by IP, it divides by 2, and rounds it off. Hopefully it will be fixed in the next patch.

Thanks for the response(s). I was driving myelf crazy trying to figure it out. Guess I need to keep a closer eye on the message boards.
