answer: "A starting pitcher has never won Cy Young with a losing record though a few have had less than stellar records: deGrom was 11-8 and 10-9, Felix was 13-12, Mike Marshall was 15-12.

Holy shit he was an All Star snub with an ERA under 2.

He should be doing a lot more to help his team. He should at least be batting. And letting his friends fuck his gf.

CR

btw, is there a stat to determine whether he's gotten extremely unlucky with horrible run support versus if his team is that fucking bad? one could easily make such a stat. there's got to be one.

Run Support Average for Skenes’ starts is 3.26 v. The Pirates overall score of 3.52, so it’s mostly just his team sucks.

In 7 of his 19 starts he has received 0 or 1 runs in support.

The Pirates are 29th in HRs and 27th in Runs Scored.

According to Grok, you have to go back to Satchel Page in 1933 to find such a dominant pitcher with a sub-.500 win loss record at the halfway point.

ty for the scholarship.

is a -0.26 run support differential from your team's average significant? there's got to be an advanced stat for this!

No. On average your fellow pitchers are only getting .25 runs more than you. So your team just sucks.

run support numbers are extrapolated out to 9 inning games, right? 3.26 run support means that if he's going 6-7, he's really getting barely more than 2 runs support

Shalom brother. All these "advanced stats" are gay jewish nonsense. All we need for pitching are W-L, ERA, walks and strikeouts. Also complete games should be valued again.
