FIP is silly, it's usually like a .05-.08 difference with ERA.

Prior's best FIP is probably 2.5something and Sabathia's is probably 2.8something
Like I said, Prior was a beast for a season

ERA is one of the worst stats. It's just like RBIs and wins. It's so basic.

george fip is pitcher performance on an era scale measured by only homers, Ks, walks, HBP. the idea is that a pitcher has no control over his defense and BABIP against pitchers is luck

every aspect of an rbi and a win relies on the rest of the team. ERA is largely based on how good a pitcher is, what a stupid comparison

Doesn't FIP disregard groundball pitchers? well, to the extent that they have lower home run rates and pitch to contact (lower walks) it doesn't favors them if they have bad defenses too, assuming their peripherals arent even worse than their defenses edit: though xfip uses league avg hr rates, which i think is dumb

even on a defense with low range or bad defense w/o errors, great pitchers will still have good era's
