I dread seeing him come in from the bullpen. He should strictly be a mop up guy when games are out of hand.

I was hoping Bud would break his normal routine of only pitching Gregerson, Adams, and Bell with a lead. None of them pitched Tuesday and we have Thursday off. When Mujia entered the game in the 7th, it was only a 1-2 deficit and the Padres had just scored.
A few more games like Tuesday's Laugher, would allow our best relievers to pitch in close games when we are behind. That would make the team even better. But since, it seems, every game is a close game, we don't have the luxury of having the best in games where we are close behind. Getting Stauffer back will be huge in games like yesterday. He would have most likely pitched and kept it a 1 run game.

He has potential and is young so I would not give up on him.

I came over to this thread just to see how long it would take people to respond to Mujica blowing the game for us and giving up a towering homerun! When Stauffer comes off the DL, do you guys think we let him go?

When Stauffer comes off the DL, do you guys think we let him go? If kept, Mujica should be allowed to pitch only in non-save situations (ahead by 4+ runs or when behind by significant amount of runs). No pitching late in the game with the scored tied or ahead by 3 runs with bases loaded

Booming triple, Booming HR. Hurry up Stauffer. Dodgers win. Mujica just pitched us to second place. Dump him NOW.

I just went through the list of pitchers and I can't really see anyone but Mujica being who the Padres would send down.
Other than their 5 starters they have:
1.44 Luke Gregerson (7th inning guy) 2.63 Mike Adams (8th inning guy) 1.38 Heath Bell (Closer) 5.19 Sean Gallagher (No options. Only 23. Lots of potential. Pitching better latey. Perfect Mop up guy) 3.41 Edward Mujica 1.54 Joe Thatcher (lefty spec.) 1.02 Ryan Webb (long relief)
Mujica has a BAPIP of .205 this year. That would indicate he has been really real lucky. His 3.41 ERA should be a lot higher. Last year his BAPIP was more league average .310. When it reverts to the mean with the home runs he is giving up, his ERA will sky rocket.
Maybe the Padres were "showing" Mujica to the Mets who really need to improve their bullpen. That makes the home run bad on two counts.
Another option is trading a player like Corriea or Adams for a good young ML ready hitter.

Bill, Babip isn't about luck in fact the more important state is line drive rate, if it was all about luck, Roy Halladay is lucky every year, Mujica has a very impressive line drive rate at 13 % and his K rate is higher than last year, hence why his numbers are respectable given his high HR rate.
The area where you can say he has been lucky is none of the runners he left on when he left (inherited runners) have scored
But here is his stats in 1 and 2 run games, 15 IP, 15 H, 2 BB, 13 SO's, 5.4 ERA. As you can see he is much better without pressure

As you can see he is much better without pressure Roy Halladay's BABIP since he first pitched 200 innings is: 2002 0.289 2003 0.286 2004 0.312 2005 0.264 2006 0.279 2007 0.305 2008 0.287 2009 0.310 2010 0.298 Just like everyone else he averages around .300.
In your proof of why BABIP is moot you invoked strikeout rate. This leads me to believe you don't know what BABIP is. Strikeout rate is irrelevant since strikeouts are removed from the stat, as shown below: BABIP = (Hits - HR) / (AB - K - HR)
What effects BABIP in order of importance is: 1. Luck 2. Defense 3. Ball Park 4. The Pitcher This is the conclusion based upon statistical analysis. I could explain to you how they came to that conclusion, if you wish.
