Clutch players of 2009
Congratulations Ryan Howard! Howard, already a great hitter (+3.4 situational wins as a hitter), bumped it up to +6.0 wins when you considered the inning and score. The anti-clutch hitter was a tight race, but I’ll go with the D’Backs Chris Young. He already was having a bad season, and his performance in clutch situations made him even worse.


I did a little preview of the top clutch, and not so clutch players in the playoffs, last week. I guess you can click on my name to check it out. Nothing crazy, just looking at the numbers.
It was pretty surprising that I think everyone on the rockies had a negative clutch value.
