.500 with a 3.00 era is a stud? No thanks. Just another example of being able to suck, not get fired and get rich at the same time.

He won the last two Cy Young’s in the AL.

But he’s probably overrated…

They’ve certainly moved beyond a pitcher’s W-L record as a meaningful statistic these days. It really means nothing at this point. And perhaps that’s fair, but it’s still so weird to me.

Skenes won the NL Cy Young last year - unanimously - with a 10-10 record. Just crazy. Seems like WAR and WHIP are really all that matter in this new era where saber-metrics are all mainstream.

Well, Skubal’s not gonna win awards this season, but he went 13-6 and 18-4 in Detroit the last two seasons with very good stats. Was a unanimous pick for the CY in 24.

I don’t mind great pitchers on bad teams getting recognized for great seasons.
