[QUOTE="leatherneckjacket, post: 1009941, member: 3849"] The more obvious answer is that when a staff has the same WHIP despite surrendering fewer walks, their BABIP is extremely high. This is most likely due to allowing harder contact, which will result in more home runs allowed, higher slugging allowed, and higher ERA. Yes, throwing strikes is more desired than throwing balls, but there is also being inaccurate in the zone. You can throw inaccurate strikes that lead to hard contact and more runs. Having said that, not everyone can be Blake Snell and get away with a high walk rate. Throw strikes, mix location and speed, maintain a consistent delivery and arm angle, and be unpredictable and you will do well. [/QUOTE]
