Of course, MVP tends to go to players on winning whereas Cy Young doesn't matter for that. MVP is stupidly/ambiguously defined anyway. If you mean the V in MVP then say so. You have half the people voting for the best player in the league and half sticking to the definition of "valuable". And then you can break down that 2nd half more by defining value as "leading team to the playoffs" vs "Imagine how much worse this team would be without this guy". Edit: Well, maybe not strictly better. But they're very comparable. And there is no clearcut offensive leader. deGrom 2018 - 1.68 ERA, 28 G, 188 IP, 219 ERA+, 2.07 FIP, 2.70 xFIP, 6.7 H/9, 0.4 HR/9, 2.0 BB/9, 11 K/9, 8.2 bWAR, 7.4 fWAR Kershaw 2014 - 1.77 ERA, 27 G, 198.1 IP, 197 ERA+, 1.81 FIP, 2.08 xFIP, 6.3 H/9, 0.4 HR/9, 1.4 BB/9, 10.8 K/9, 7.7 bWAR, 7.6 fWAR Scherzer 2018 - 2.28 ERA, 29 G, 193.2 IP, 186 ERA+, 2.73 FIP, 3.06 xFIP, 5.8 H/9, 1.0 HR/9, 2.1 BB/9, 12.1 K/9, 8.2 bWAR, 6.0 fWAR Strikeouts are the only thing Scherzer really has over deGrom. And it's not a large difference. --- ~Wigs~ Dp Guru Wins over Me: 1, Fantasy Baseball Wins over Dp: 3 2015 NATIONAL LEAGUE CHAMPION NEW YORK METS ... Copied to Clipboard! |
