Managers rarely have an easy decision on their hands when the time comes to choose the postseason rotation, and Ron Washington seems to have the decision more difficult than others. This season, the five starters - have started it all but five games - CJ Wilson, Matt Harrison, Derek Holland, and Alexi Ogando Colby Lewis. It's kind of toughness that we rarely see in today's game, says one of them to be mere spectators, who earn high wages can not be easy.
Fortunately, Washington, a little bit of the workload in Ogando's. Last season, he gave Ogando 72 03/01 roles across the three levels. This season, and the roles of a total of 169 2.3 is more than double that figure, although it is not necessarily a problem, it is clear that Ogando has been worn down as the season advanced. In the first half, published Ogando 2.92 ERA and 3.39 K / BB. In the second half, and these numbers have dropped sharply 4.55 and 2.35, respectively, and the result looks to be assessed in the Ogando??? Duty.
Wilson will start Game 1 for sure, and the way they line up after that, will be appointed by the Netherlands and Lewis to start Game 2 for the rest of the regular or extended, and Harrison is scheduled to start Game 3 in the rest of the regular, or Game 4 on the rest of the extended. This gives Washington and some flexibility, but for now we will address the order in which pitchers should be available.
CJ Wilson: 2.94 ERA, 3.41 xFIP, 84 xFIP, 2.78 K / BB, HR 0,64 / 9, and 5.7 WAR
Wilson was one of the best pitchers in the American League this season, and will probably get some votes down the ballot CY Young. xFIP it is the eighth best player in the new arena this season, more than half a run better than last year. In fact, outside to see a few more balls in the seats are cheap, and Wilson has the best on the road all season. And of particular note is the jump in the% O - tour, set up six percent from last year to 29.9% full professionalism. He had his K rate went up while the percentage of his walk. What makes Wilson's devastating is that it does not lean on any playground and one with a two-stroke - it's designed fastball less to him with two strikes, and the distribution of wealth on all pitches to him, much like what he is doing generally, which makes it difficult for batters to anticipate what's coming.
Derek Holland: 3.95 ERA, 3.77 xFIP, 93 xFIP, 2.42 K / BB, HR 1,00 / 9, 3.4 WAR
Turned into the Netherlands if there is one image from the Netherlands were burned in the minds of public opinion, it is the world championships last year, when the monument as a dwelling in Game 2, the game is close to smiling when he entered in the eighth game and walked all the batters of the three that brought the most recent encounter, a home run . Louis will relieve him, and immediately the Giants tagged him for six runs, two of which were sent to the Netherlands. Preparing to fast forward so far, and the Netherlands for rebounds. And traded some and it is sufficient to cope with the decline in the rate of walking him, though his K rate has rebounded in the second half as his fastball has gained steam. One thing interesting to note when considering the debate is that in the Netherlands when he was the best pitcher against lefties, and he is not useless against righties, as he is able to bury the slider inside them. Was shocked by the pace righties much better for his career.
Colby Lewis: 4.40 ERA, 4.10 xFIP, 101 xFIP, 3.02 K / BB, HR 1,57 / 9, and 2.1 WAR
The Carson Cistulli crush the man was never able to repeat the success of his breakthrough 2010, but it was not horrible either. April was a disaster, and he sprinkled in some corrupt deals since then - along the two in early June with 15 runs given up in the roles of four 3.2 being the most obvious example - but he went at least seven innings while allowing three runs or less in more than half starts. Lewis is also the most efficient pitcher on the staff, occupies the second place among the starters in both Texas% K and% BB. It can be a factor corresponding with the Lewis. It was much better on the road - he had a severe case of the disease commonly known as the Arlington Gopheritis this year - and he was much better against righties equally on the left. If the Rangers at the end of the day, as the seed of the three, it will not be at all surprising to see Lewis to pitch Game 2, so that the Rangers can use his strength a little better, and they deserve credit for the existence of foresight to plan for such a possibility.
Matt Harrison: 3.50 ERA, 3.88 xFIP, 96 xFIP, 2.18 K / BB, HR 0,66 / 9, 3.8 WAR
Talk about the restructuring. In the last year, Harrison was, ah, is not good, either the beginning or housing, but Rangers gave him a shot at being the beginning of this season, and even when he struggled at the beginning of the year, and stick with Rangers. Has been rewarded for it. FIP use a calculator quick and dirty, Harrison published a FIP 4.70 in April and May, compared with 3.22 mark since then. For reference, this can be the top 10 personal. Division-wise, it was the opposite of Lewis - better in the home and the best against the left hand, but with the exception of K defined / BB, divides it is not as exciting as "Louis. But in essence, Harrison, such as the Netherlands, is CJ Wilson Lite.. This is not a bad thing.
Rangers rotation is certainly good enough to compete with other teams I have studied so far. They do not have the best 1-2 punch - which belongs to Detroit - and the ace of the not as good as the Yankees' ace, but the Rangers trio Wilson, the Netherlands, Harrison is the best trio of three, and if Lewis was leveraged correctly, it can be said Rangers deeper rotation of the three as well as . What is more, they have plenty of comfort for employees - Lewis threw only 76 pitches in recent games, and the Netherlands (74) and Wilson (38) threw less. he bet fair Harrison melody and a similar night. with all of the planning and promote good quality, Texas gave themselves the best possible chance for success in October.
