Without giving away too much of our process, we do account for defensive effects in our pitcher efficiency values. It's probably not as in-depth as some people would want, but again, we're not trying to predict the actual score (or even winner). We're just concerned w/ valuing the teams relative to each other, which we think the process should do. You definitely make a valid point, and that's one of the reasons we don't use the formula to predict totals.
