Pitcher Win Values on FanGraphs

PrintThey're on the player pages. They'll be on the leaderboards and team pages soon enough.
They're FIP-based, just to annoy Graham. They're not perfect, as we'll talk about when I go through the calculations during the upcoming week. But they're pretty good and lots of fun.
So, check them out. Most of your questions will probably be answered in the posts I'm doing for FanGraphs this week, but if you have specific questions that you want to see covered that you think I might not think of, feel free to ask them here. We'll cover as much as we can.

You're just waiting for Fangraphs hold their IPO
and then buy you out for millions of dollars.
I kinda wish Fangraphs used tRA for these calculations so I could be even lazier than I already am.

I don't really want millions of dollars from tRA

It's the principle of the thing!
And for principle you need to add three more zeros!
Fans are typically idiots.

I would like $$$ but that's hardly a reasonable desire nor the prime motivator behind development

Not to sound like an idiot, but it the motivator straight up love of the game of baseball?
I’m curious.

Of course not!
Insurance premiums and fuel for this are quite expensive:

There's an Aston Martin dealer across the street from my office.
I look at those cars every single day.
I like using semi-colons; they make me feel smart.
That's terrible
Red is not an OK colour for an Aston Martin

I am so impressed with how Fangraphs has grown over the last year.
With the addition of all these great statistical measures and a stable of fantastic writers (many of which come from the Mariners blogging world, uncoincidentally enough), it’s become a daily must-read for me.
(My five daily baseball must-reads: BBTF, Fangraphs, Baseball Musings, LL, and USSM.)
Patriotism, Pepper, Professionalism
It's not a big enough topic. How about a FanShot instead?
Big Z is the MAN.
