(Source: MLB.com Video; Kyle Freeland for the Colorado Rockies)
The Colorado Rockies (13-15, 5 GB NL West) play the Milwaukee Brewers (15-14, 3 GB NL Central) tonight.
Tonight’s Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Kyle Freeland (2-3, 4.23 ERA) has given up 13 earned runs and 14 runs in 27 2/3 innings pitched this season.
The Rockies are 2-3 in his starts. The Rockies won 6-2 vs. the Philadelphia Phillies on April 18th in his last start (when he gave up zero runs) before he went on the injured list.
Freeland’s true ERA won-lost record is 1.444 wins and 2.142 losses and a 4.23 true ERA.
His true Run Average won-lost record is 1.444 wins and 2.225 losses and a 4.55 true RA.
Freeland’s pitching performance (regardless if the Rockies win or not) is three wins and two losses if the weight of his wins (getting batters out) is greater than his losses (allowing runs to score).
His true ERA pitching performance is 3.208 wins and 2.308 losses for a .582 percentage.
His true RA pitching performance is 3.208 wins and 2.558 losses for a .556 percentage.
Freeland has given up the most runs (or tied for giving up the most runs on the Rockies pitching staff) in four of his five starts this season.
The most runs he has given up in a game this season is seven. The fewest when he has given up at least one run is one run.
In every loss, he has given up at least three runs and in every win it has been one or zero runs.
Freeland has had a shaky season thus far.
For the Milwaukee Brewers, starting pitcher Zach Davies (2-0, 1.65 ERA) has given up 5 earned runs and 7 runs in 27 1/3 innings pitched this season.
The Brewers are 3-2 in his starts. They have lost Davies’ last two starts.
One could say, if you have to give a decision for each pitching outing, to more reflect a win-loss record like we all know in baseball, Davies should have four wins and one loss or four wins and half a loss.
He has left the game with the lead three times and a scoreless tie just once. I am giving Davies a win in a Brewers 3-1 loss vs. the Los Angeles Dodgers on April 18th when he gave up zero runs.
In his one “loss,” he gave up half the runs and Alex Wilson was tagged with the other half in a 4-3 Brewers loss vs. the St. Louis Cardinals on April 23rd.
Davies’ true ERA won-lost record is 1.963 wins and .500 losses with a 1.65 true ERA.
His true Run Average won-lost record is 1.963 wins and 0.500 losses and a 2.30 true RA.
Davies’ pitching performance this season (regardless if the Brewers win or not) is 2 wins and 3 losses if the weight of his wins (getting batters out) is greater than his losses (the runs he gives up).
His true ERA pitching performance is 3.102 wins and 2.167 losses for a .589 percentage.
His pitching performance when looked at closer is 3.102 wins and 3.167 losses for a percentage of .495.
Davies has given up the most runs (or tied for the most) on the Brewers pitching staff in all four starts he has given up any runs.
Unfortunately for any opponent, the most runs he has given up in any start are just two runs. So obviously, Davies has had a fine season thus far.
