Brew Crew Ball, a Milwaukee Brewers community

The Statcorner/Lookout Landing crew lists the win values of pitchers last year, just based on their hitting. As we know, Zambrano is just a monster. It's interesting to note that you can probably deduct a half win or so from Sheets's value, he was the fourth worst at about -.5 wins last year. Dave Bush was down there as well, Manny Parra checked in around +.5. It's an interesting reference for the value of pitchers hitting. I was surprised that there can be a full win of difference between a good and bad hitting pitcher.

If you use Firefox (and if you don't, you should, though it works on IE 7 as well), click the link to add Fangraphs Player Search to the search engine options in the top right corner of the page. Then you just type a player's name, and you can easily find their wOBA, UZR, LD%, and many other numbers to add to your argument!
