Just wondering if someone could let me know what WHIP is?

# of Walks +# of Hits / Innings Pitched

Example

In 2006, Brandon Webb gave up 216 hits and walked 50 batters in 235 Innings pitched

so...

216 +50 = 266 ------ > 266/235 = 1.1319 rounded to 1.132

So for every inning that Webb pitches he allows 1.13 baserunners

WHIP= Walks, Hits, and Innings Pitched

WHIP is Walks and Hits per Innings Pitched. It's precisely what it says, how many walks or hits the picther gave up per inning on average. A good WHIP is around 1.

Its an average used in pitching. It is an average of walks and hits issued by a pitcher per inning.

WHIP= Walks Hits Inning Per

WHIP equals Walks-Hits-Innings-Pitched, or the number of walks and hits per inning by a pitcher.

whip is walks +hits per innings pitched for example roger clemens gives up 1 hit + 1walk in 2innings his whip would be= to 1

WHIP is a great indicator of a pitcher's performance. If it's under one, that means he's averaging LESS THAN ONE baserunner allowed per inning, which is just plain crazy. 1.00 is the standard...1.01-1.29 is generally acceptable....1.3 or higher and you need to start getting worried.

Another one of those useless stats that fantasy nerds keep for their game, i believe it is walks and hits per innings pitched? The real question is what players actually care about these lame-o stats

that would be ghetto slang for a car.
