"This Year in Baseball" Numbers

MLB's This Year in Baseball awards' voting ends December 5. Go vote for Pedroia as RotY, Buchholz for best one-game performance, and Drew for Best Postsesaon Moment. There are Sox-related options in every category except for Best Regular Season Moment (I think).

For each option in each category, they have some numbers about each. I compiled all the most impressive stats for Sox-related options into a list, organized by player. All stats are regular-season.


JOSH BECKETT:

194:40
Strikeout-to-walk ratio.

1.14
Walks and hits per inning pitched.


JONATHAN PAPELBON:

12.96
Strikeouts per 9 innings pitched.

0.77
Walks and hits per inning pitched.


HIDEKI OKAJIMA:

.202
Opponents' batting average.


CLAY BUCHHOLZ

73
Strikes thrown. (Sept. 1, 2007 only)

115
Pitches thrown. (Sept. 1, 2007 only)

98

Sigh... isn't it February yet?
