New stat: Shutdowns and Meltdowns

12

I don't know if this has been posted before. This new stat is coming out of The Book blog, tangotiger et al. The idea is to provide a more meaningful approach to saves and holds. Details at FanGraphs. A meltdown is defined as equal to or less than -0.06 WPA and a shutdown is equal to or more than +0.06 WPA.
