No, that's is just some new stat... It's irrelevant...
I agree. He has a weak bat, but his glove is fantastic. He doesn't have the ceiling of Yadier Molina, but that's ok. I don't expect all my players to wind up in the HOF.
@jared_carrabis The Red Sox are 3-7 when Clay Buchholz pitches (.300), and 26-11 when he doesn't. They have a .703 winning percentage when he doesn't pitch.
@alexspeier 10 homers allowed by Buchholz with runners on base this year, most by any pitcher in the majors.
Just bad luck. This should normalize over the next 15-20 starts!
@redsoxstats Vazquez's hitting velocity ranks 256th in MLB in May. Keeping Ichiro, Hamilton, and Iglesias company at the bottom of the barrel.
I still like him though.
