This has been a bleak year for those who rally against the hold as a positive pitching statistic on the basis of its most glaring flaw, that a pitcher can record a hold and a lo s in the same game.There are flaws beyond that, such as the widely varying quality of performances that can generate a hold.Coming in with a three-run lead in the sixth inning, getting one out, Cliff Pennington Jersey then walking the next five batters to allow two runs before leaving the bases loaded gets the same H in the boxscore as coming into that bases-loaded situation with a one-run lead, retiring eight straight hitters, then turning things over to the closer for the ninth.But getting a supposedly positive stat and being charged with a lo s at the same time is the one that most effortle sly exposes the holds woes.MORE: | There have been only six hold/lo ses this year, after there were 16 a year ago.This could be the first time since 1988 the tally is in single digits, having gotten as high as 24 in 1995. If this is indicative of any kind of trend, it is only that managers might be le s willing to leave in a reliever who put the go-ahead runs on base. It is not a sign of any kind of evolution of the hold into a useful and meaningful statistic.Why are there not better statistics widely used for relief pitchers? We have the tools at our disposal, such as Baseball References Play Index, which allows for  Matt Joyce Jersey sorting by splits.Here, for example, are the top 20 relief pitchers in the major leagues this year by WHIP in high-leverage situations, with a minimum of 20 appearances in such spots.Kenley Jansen, Dodgers: 0.500Brad Ziegler, Diamondbacks: 0.582Randy Choate, Cardinals: 0.600Jonathan Papelbon, Phillies/Nationals: 0.611Joaquin Benoit, Padres: 0.618Koji Uehara, Red Sox: 0.636Zach Britton, Orioles: 0.643James Ru sell, Cubs: 0.667Andrew Miller, Yankees: 0.770Seth Mane s, Cardinals: 0.785Jason Grilli, Braves: 0.785Will Harris, Astros: Tony Phillips Jersey 0.789Wade Davis, Royals: 0.792Justin Wilson, Yankees: 0.810Drew Storen, Nationals: 0.823Sergio Romo, Giants: 0.824Mark Melancon, Pirates: 0.827Tony Watson, Pirates: 0.857Pat Neshek, Astros: 0.868Aaron Thompson, Twins: 0.871MORE: Or, how about this? One key situation for relievers is when there is a runner on third base with le s than two outs. You want a strikeout to try to make sure that run doesnt score. So, whos been the best at that? Here are the top 20 relievers in percentage of runner-on-third, le s-than-two-outs plate appearances (intentional walks excluded) ending in a strikeout.Hector [*****], Cubs: 57.1Wade Davis, Royals: 50.0Mike Dunn, Marlins: 41.7Carson Smith, Mariners: 41.7Cesar Ramos, Angels: 31.3Evan Scribner, As: 31.3Rafael Betancourt, Rockies: 30.8Steve Cishek, Marlins/Cardinals: 30.8Tommy Hunter, Orioles/Cubs: 28.6Franklin Morales, Royals: 28.6Will Harris, Astros: 27.3Trevor Rosenthal, Cardinals: 27.3Fernando Salas, Angels: 26.7Dan Jennings, White Sox: 25.0Kelvin Herrera, Royals: 24.0Fernando Rodney, Mariners: 23.5Luis Garcia, Phillies: 21.4Tommy Kahnle, Rockies: 21.4Robbie Ro s Jr., Red Sox Matt Olson Jersey : 20.8This leaderboard is le s than perfect in its own way. If a reliever is facing a situation with a runner on third and le s than two outs, he could have gotten into that spot either by inheriting it or by putting the runner there himself, which could po sibly be indicative of a lousy outing. Its also going to generate small sample sizes.Take Dellin Betances of the Yankees, a deserving All-Star, easily this years leader in wins above replacement among relievers (3.3, compared to 2.6 for Rosenthal in second place) and one of the most dominant strikeout pitchers in the game. Betances has struck out only two of 13 hitters in the runner-on-third, le s-than-two-outs situation, allowing one hit, one sacrifice fly and two walks. Despite the lack of strikeouts, New York still would call on Betances in such a situation hopeful of getting one, and with a reasonable expectation that it might happen.Every statistic needs context to be able to show what it needs to show. The hold remains woeful at this. By using the tools available, though, a better picture can be painted, if still not a complete one, of the most effective Kendrys Morales Jersey relievers in the game.
