Re: Aaron Cook doesn't believe in wind energy
Is this statistic for a slow pitch beer belly league?

4 walks and 4 strikeouts in 44.2 innings. That has to be some sort of record.

Re: Aaron Cook doesn't believe in wind energy
Right now, his K% is 2.4%.
From 1960-2012 the lowest K% of anyone with at least 40 innings was 3.5% and only three total guys were under 4%.

That is kind of like letting them hit off a tee.

Re: Aaron Cook doesn't believe in wind energy
The Red Sox don't make sense anymore, taking Franklin Morales out of the rotation so they could leave Cook in it is just one of many ways.

Re: Aaron Cook doesn't believe in wind energy
Gotta give the guy credit, tied a season high with 2 more Ks last night, up to 2.8% now. Unfortunately, he also blew away his season high in BBs in a game with 3, now at 6 K/7 BB in 51.2 IP.

Re: Aaron Cook doesn't believe in wind energy
Cook has a babip of .250 and a GB% of 61. Are we sure he's not one of those new types of guys that can control the fate of a batted ball?
