I'm still not convinced that poise is going to be a statistic-independent rating. Markus' original statement on poise was, "influences the big picture... younger pitchers may have great stuff, but no idea how to use it, while old veterans are still losing velocity but can still pitch effectively with a high poise rating." That statement, to me, leaves room for interpretation. It could be some statistically nebulous rating, but it could also be rating that can be derived from statistics. Not having heard any follow-up from Markus on the subject, I think it might be a little premature to worry about whether the rating is pushing the game towards more fuzzy, intangible results.
