With the New York Mets set to begin their final homestand of the 2018 season that left much to be desired, one player that did not leave anything to be desired during the 2018 season was pitcher Jacob deGrom.
deGrom, who arguably had one of the greatest seasons for a pitcher in recent memory, will finish the season with a win percentage hovering around .500. A person who knows little about baseball may think deGrom had a mediocre season, but boy are they wrong.
The three “Triple Crown” stats of pitching are the ERA, the win-loss record, and strikeouts.
