Stat request: pitcher HR%

As a firm believer that batters faced (BF) is the "correct" denominator for pitcher rate stats (as opposed to innings pitched), I'd love to see HR% added to complete the FIP trifecta. HR/9 is a decent but unnecessarily noisy proxy for a pitcher's home run rate.

Seconded.
