Chris Constancio has an interesting little article over at FirstInning.com regarding the use of K% and BB% instead of K/9 and BB/9 for measuring pitcher effectiveness. The reason it is important:
"Pitchers who do surrender many hits or walk a lot of batters have inflated K/9 rates because they face more batters per inning and therefore have more opportunities to record strikeouts."
