There were 5 new entrants into Games Played, and 4 of top 5 Games Stared seasons were from this year. Owners are using their best pitchers more and more.
Additional seasons were added to the Top 10 in WHIP, RCERA, and CERA.
Full leader boards - both career and single season - will post this weekend.
PS - And it is an interesting argument with respect to Maddux vs Walter for the Cy Young. By all accounts, Maddux was 'better' this year - better WHIP, RCERA, opponents batting average, etc - but Johnson started 10 more games and threw 85 more innings. That is a heck of a lot, and may make up the gap.
37 Quality Starts, Holy Cow. Was it a 3 man rotation or a 4 skip?
ReplyDeleteA 4 skip until the last "week" which was a 3.
ReplyDeleteBut, "somebody" left the Big Train off the ballot. *sigh*
