Negro League *SP's

PostSat Aug 08, 2020 1:06 pm

seem to have a high number of hits/BB on the 7 roll. just checking the RH*SP's, almost everyone has a hit or walk on the 7 roll? seems like lazy card compilation to me and unfair. especially with men on base, it seems to put them at a distinct disadvantage with an onbase opportunity on the most common roll the 7.

WTF ??? Satchel Paige of 67% of his 7 rolls with no hits.
Slim Jones has 79.4% of his 7 rolls with no hits
Max Manning has 100% of his 7 rolls for no hits
Nip Winters has 89% of his 7 rolls for no hits

I think you need to find something else to complain about, and you do understand probability right? It is the combined probability of a hit over all the rolls that determines how they do. You should use these pitchers they perform well

i think i do. let's see here. first throw out Jones and Winters, so you are 50% wrong to start, then Manning is correct Paige is not. so your assertion is only 25% correct. I like my 75% odds.

In case anyone's giving out a prize, here is my submission:

Paige - 84%
Manning - 100%
Jones - 82%
Winters - 91%
