For those who haven't voted yet for their choices toward end of season awards, I'd like to put forward Jacob deGrom as top starting pitcher.
deGrom lead the league in many pitching categories, here are the ones where he finished #1:
Strike Outs (set a new league record of 356, topping the previous mark by 33)
ERA (2.29)
Shut Outs (5 including a no hitter!)
Complete Games (7)
Quality Starts (29)
QS % (.763)
Innings (275)
And others he finished in 2nd spot:
Wins (A 20 game winner!)
OPS (.570)
Component ERA (2.10)
TB+BB+HBP rate (.355)
TB+BB rate (.347)
HR/9 INNINGS (0.5)
As well deGrom was a Pitcher of the Week winner 5 times and Pitcher of the Month 3 times (so half the season).
He had a great season!
