Is it reflected in fip?
no FIP is not contextual, WPA is though but i think that just uses EV outcomes at whatever point the event occurs during a game and doesn't actually look at individual pitcher-hitter match-ups

Re: MLB 2012 Game Thread

pujols contract has to rival zito for worst ever but at least zito could only hurt you once every five games. they are gonna have 25 million a year of dead money that they feel they have to play each day

zito is worse by a pretty convincing margin

moreno doesn't give a ****

giants management cite that contract however as the reason they don't do a god damn other thing to sign free agents
