Stat of the year

Neftali Feliz, so far this season, has thrown 134 1/3 innings.

He has allowed 3 home runs.

3 home runs.  In 134 innings.  That's a rate of .20 HRs per 9 innings.

To put that in perspective, in the majors this year, among qualifying pitchers, Cliff Lee has the lowest HR/9 rate, at .37.  Tim Lincecum and Mike Pelfrey are the only other pitchers to be below .5 HR/9.

So...

6 home runs given up in 284.2 innings for the Rangers top two pitching prospects.

To put that in perspective, R.A. Dickey gave up 6 home runs in 3.1 innings of ONE start in 2006.

Amazing.

drool

and, for both Feliz and Holland, high k rates, decent walk rates, GB/FB ratios of about 1.20, good WHIPS and FIPS. Drool……….

O Freunde, nicht diese Töne!
Sondern laßt uns angenehmere anstimmen,
und freudenvollere.

sounds like hitters are just happy to get any kind of wood on the ball.
