Credit for Saves

Featured Replies

Having watched Singo get credit for two saves by only getting one out in each game, I was thinking it would be fair to divide saves into thirds, based on the last inning pitched. Under this system Marte would have earned 2/3's of a save and Shingo 1/3rd. Am I crazy or is there any merit to this idea?

And, BTW, Shingo pitched the full inning in the first game.

I know that. For that game he would get a complete save. I'm talking about the one out in Minn. and the one yesterday.

 

Now tell me why I'm crazy.

Nah 2 me that actually sounds good. Give credit were credit is due. Tho however this may screw up some things

 

save = last pitchs of the game.

does save = 9th inning? etc.

i just think their shouldnt be a save... although i guess maybe it could be changed if their was a runner in scoring position... Not if its just 1 out or if only a guy on 1B.

So, on the same thought Garcia should have only gotten 8/9 of a win yesterday?

No. There are rules for wins already in place. That's why there is a difference between a win and a save. All I'm suggesting is that both Marte and Hermanson deserve some of the credit for getting two guys out in the 9th inning.

Perhaps you've never heard of a hold before.

You lack vision.

If by not wanting to make stat keeping in baseball MORE confusing, I lack vision - then yes, I lack vision.

So what is your point? There are rules for saves already in place as well. You want to change those rules so someone else sarcastically suggested that we change the rules for wins. This is a bunch of nonsense.

I'm talking about a statistic not a rule change. But I guess this is to complex for you.
