Value as a pitcher comes down to a balance of two things: dominance and consistency. Strike Outs per Inning Pitched (KPI) is used to put a number on the "dominance" of a pitcher's stuff. The familiar stat of Walks and Hits per Inning Pitched (WHIP) is then used to quantify how consistently they perform. Subtract WHIP from KPI and we can see how the pitchers measure up against each other.
KPI - WHIP (Strike Outs per Inning Pitched - Walks and Hits per Inning Pitched)
Note: A negative KPI - WHIP value is not a negative assessment of the pitcher; this stat only provides a scale to compare against other pitchers. Furthermore, pitching can never decrease a player's rating; ability to pitch - if only in a serviceable capacity - can only add to a player's value.

Remember, star ratings only directly impact the dollar value against the salary cap for captains and franchised players. The star ratings for all players entering the draft basicaly serve as an early assessment of their market value. Captains have until October 1st to franchise players on their current roster; each team may use up to two franchise tags, but every team must franchise at least one player in addition to the captain.
