Mets going to 6-man rotation at least for this turn, deGrom next on Monday vs Marlins
― son of a lewd monk (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 10 September 2014 11:20 (nine years ago) link
The Elias Sports Bureau notes that (deGrom is) one of three pitchers in Mets history to have an ERA below 3.00 through the first 20 starts of his debut season. The other two: Tom Seaver and Dwight Gooden....
Since starting 0-4, deGrom is 8-2 with a 1.77 ERA in 12 starts. Since June 21, his ERA ranks third-best in baseball, behind only Clayton Kershaw’s 1.19 and Corey Kluber’s 1.61. His .535 opponents’ OPS trails only Kershaw’s .464 and Garrett Richards’ .510.
Not only did the scoreboard watching go right for the Mets from the perspective of the wild-card standings (yes, go ahead and laugh), it went right for deGrom from a statistical perspective as well.
DeGrom’s chief competition in the Rookie of the Year race, Billy Hamilton, finished Tuesday 0-for-4 for the Reds, dropping his batting average to .260.
Unlike the wild card, this will be a neck-and-neck race probably right down to the final day. DeGrom’s pitching entering the day was worth 2.5 Wins Above Replacement. Hamilton was a hair behind him. His offensive and defensive performance has been worth 2.4 WAR.
