Ray's Adjusted W-L Records

Breaking down our staff using Eric Seidman's adjusted W-L record model looks like this so far this year:

Scott Kazmir is 7-3, with a 7-3 Adj  (FIP 3.12)

James Shields is 6-5, with a 7-4 Adj (FIP 3.17)

Matt Garza is 7-4, with a 9-2 Adj (FIP 4.11)

Andy Sonnanstine is 10-3, with a 6-7 Adj (FIP 3.25)

Edwin Jackson is 5-6, with a 3-8 Adj (FIP 4.40)

So, relative to the amount of good games vs bad games, in which they recorded decisions, the Rays five are 32-24, whereas their actual records add up to 35-21, meaning their offense and bullpen has done a good job at scoring and holding leads when starters go 5 or less.

The adjusted numbers are found by seperating each pitchers Cheap Wins, Tough Losses, Legit Wins, and Legit Losses - all of which are derived from AQS (Adjusted Quality Starts).  The adjusted records show the amount of times a pitcher deserved to win or lose relative to the amount of decisions received.  Also - no decisions are not included in this model.

I am surprised about Jackson

Yes, we are all aware he loses the strike zone too often but he has definatley pitched better than 3-8.

Those records don't make sense

Not sure how they compute those numbers, but Edwin has 3 games where he has given up no runs and 4 games where he has given up only 1 run. He also has other above average games. I have no idea how is record could be 3-8.

I agree...

If anything, he should have at least 2 more wins than he does. Percy blew both of his saves in games in which Edwin was in line for the win. 3 wins is way too low.

Adjusted W-L

does not acknowledge no-decisions. So, relative to the decisions Edwin Jackson has received, 3 have been “good” games, and 8 have been “bad” games. Most of his better games have been no-decisions.

That explains it

I’m not sure I really like Seidman’s model then.

The model is solid for what it explains

I will post their Net Luck Ratings and Pitcher Effectiveness Points, which will paint the full picture.
