Astros bullpen WHIP+: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Phil Maton – 124

Anyone else surprised? Maybe it’s the playoff Phil Maton that’s stuck in my head. The one that gave up one run in 12.1 innings while striking out 14 and walking three that’s blocking out the regular season Maton had with the Astros.

The fact is the regular season Maton gave up more than a hit an inning, walked 4.3 per nine innings and had an ERA approaching five with a WHIP of 1.618. That’s where this number is derived from and with the postseason performance it makes you wonder what Maton the Astros see in 2022.
