Well, if it isn't Octavio Dotel, its got to be his (evil ?) twin, Alejandro Pena.
|
Gwreck Jan 14 2013 10:38 PM Re: It's too foggy to hit the pitch: The whip it good quiz. |
Dotel would make the list (1.229 career WHIP) but he's 53.2 innings short of the 1000 minimum.

I think you meant: Jones rounds out the list of close but no cigar career WHIP Mets. But this quiz is over. Last night, with three remaining top 15 WHIPsters to go (Scott, Candelaria and Pena) when MFS62 logged on, MFS62 nailed all three without erring. I didn't give him credit for Scott because Chad86 snuck in and beat him to Scott by a few minutes, but still, some impressive guesswork by MFS62. Alejandro Pena. Who would've known? Good WHIP 1. Pedro Martinez 1.0544 (LWFS) 5th all-time 2. Tom Seaver 1.1208 3. Johan Santana 1.1320 (LWFS) 4. Bret Saberhagen 1.1406 (Swan) 5. El Sid 1.1493 (LWFS) 6. John Candelaria 1.1862 (MFS62) 7. Ralph Terry 1.1864 (G-Fafif) 8. Warren Spahn 1.1946 (LWFS) 9. Jeff Reardon 1.1993 (dino jesus) 10. Mike Scott 1.2013 (chad86) 11. Dean Chance 1.2122 (dino jesus) 12. Alejandro Pena 1.2197 (MFS62) 13. Rick Reed 1.2202 (G-Fafif) 14. Rick Aguilera 1.2266 (Gwreck) 15. Mickey Lolich 1.2272 (smg58) Bad WHIP 16. Jon Matlack 1.2332 (LWFS) 17. Nolan Ryan 1.2473 (irish) 18. Randy Jones 1.2509 (metsguy) 19. Tug McGraw 1.2544 (LWFS) 20T. David Cone 1.2561 (LWFS) 20T. Dwight Gooden 1.2561 (Gwreck) 22. Jerry Koosman 1.2588 (Ash) 23. Orel Hershiser 1.2606 (Ceetar) 24. Don Cardwell 1.2624 (Ash) 25. Orlando Hernandez 1.2627 (G-Fafif) 26. Jesse O-Rice-Co 1.263 (LWFS) Dick Selma (Ash) Gary Gentry (Ash) Billy Wagner (Chad86) Craig Swan (Vic Sage) Al Leiter (Chad86) Steve Trachsel (irish) Mike Pelfrey (irish) Ron Darling (irish) Bobby Jones (DocTee) Bob Ojeda (irish) Tom Glavine (irish) Frank Viola (smg58) Armando Benitez (G-Fafif) Octavio Dotel (Gwreck) R.A. Dickey (Ceetar)
The chronically unloved Armando Benitez's career 1.217 WHIP would place him in 12th place on this list but for his lack of enough IP's, too.
I recall acknowledging Terry's name on the master bb-ref list when I was creating this quiz. But I had a momentary lapse though, forgetting that the before my time Terry was once a Met. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna go and be young.

batmagadanleadoff Jan 15 2013 06:59 AM Re: It's too foggy to hit the pitch: The whip it good quiz. |
Pedro's lifetime WHIP is 5th best all time, and the best among starters since WWI. The last time a starting pitcher that would finish with a career WHIP better than Pedro's would take the mound was almost 100 years ago (Ed Walsh, 1917). There is one reliever (not retired) with a better career WHIP than Pedro's.
