Also, if you're not using the X-axis, I'd suggest a horizontal bar chart, because I kept wondering what the X-axis on the graph was supposed to represent (it looks like it's just X+1 for the next team currently).

Would love to see if there's any correlation... Do you have a graph of innings % vs. FIP? Would love to see if there’s any correlation…

Friday through Sunday against the Tigers, and then on Monday against the Rays, they gave up 14, 9, 11, and 13 runs. I didn't look to see how the innings and scoring broke down between rotation and relief, but I have to figure the bullpen took a beating at some point in that span.

It would not give as accurate a picture for how much the relievers are getting taxed, but it would give a more accurate picture as to how early Oakland's young starters are getting yanked. may not change the data too much, but I’d be curious to see this plot if you took out extra innings.
