(Part 2)
Individual blown leads and deficits held may be more useful, particularly for pitchers in non-save situations - close to last out.
For example:
Joe Kelly is 6 for 7 with blown leads, while Devenski is 5 for 5 and Montero is 5 for 6.
Now THAT s/b a measure for a reliever, a warning to a manager.
In last night’s game Stanek and Montero had “deficits held”, my new stat for “keeping the opponent from increasing their lead”.
