The world will never run out of ways to explain how amazing the 2015 pitching staff is.
Back in late-April, when Deserved Run Average (DRA) was first revealed, I did a quick rundown of how the new metric rated Cleveland Indians starting pitchers to that point. Now with the 2015 season finished, Baseball Prospectus has released team DRA year-end results, and it indicates what we all already knew--Indians pitching was awesome.
In its most simplistic form, DRA’s purpose is to take out as many variables as possible in determining for how many runs a pitcher "deserved" to be penalized.
