Are Managers Optimizing Their Best Relievers?
July 2, 2003 - Brian Schnooks
In regards to the Shuey/Stanton breakdown and pitchers possibly being able to control $H, what about the fact that in a lot of very high leveraged situations hitters are more worried about striking out and therefore have a different approach at the plate where they are just trying to put the ball in play and therefore are not making as hard contact as normal which would lead to a lower $H%. Also, I would guess there would be more SH in high leverage situations leading to the lower $H% as well as lower K rates.
