Now that's the Leake I know....oh well could do worse for a #5 pitcher I guess.

Right. Because 100 million dollar man hasn't had a start like this this season.Originally Posted by DocRed

Good argument...since 2 wrongs make a right.
No, context is everything. Compare season performance.
I do think of it that way....but it's not like Leake hasn't had anything to do with the success. I mean come on.
How specifically has he controlled his strand rate?
"This isn’t stats vs scouts - this is stats and scouts working together, building an organization that blends the best of both worlds. This is the blueprint for how a baseball organization should be run. And, whether the baseball men of the 20th century like it or not, this is where baseball is going."---Dave Cameron, U.S.S. Mariner
Good job by Leake to keep us in the game....credit where credit is due...and nice hit.
Well then break the 4 years down into smaller chunks and find fault. It's the path to not being wrong.
Have you ever went into Gander Mountain and been accused of stealing a duck call and stink bait?
Regardless, what's your explanation for how he specifically controlled his strand rate?

Confusing game for Leake.
Giving up a grand slam to Ike Davis... Something an average 5th starter would do.
That's all you give up, and keeping the team in the game after that... Something a mid rotation starter would do.

Don't need one, I got sample sizes!
Actually you've got obfuscation and illigetimate snark. There's a large sample demonstrating the impact of the Reds defense.

Also: facts.
Agreed, the facts and sample size all point to the effect of defense.

(I was referring to Rojo.)
