Quality of Pitching in NL and AL

By Tangotiger, 11:49 AM

John Walsh wrote a great piece about OF arms in the Hardball Times Annual. It’s one of those great “well-presented, intensely-researched, easy-to-grasp” articles that I like. You don’t have to get the math-mumbo-jumbo to understand what’s going on. John is one of my favorite sabermetricians, and for that reason, I hold him to a higher standard. In his article:
