New York Mets ace, Jacob deGrom, had a historical 2018 Cy Young campaign which will be, for better or worse, remembered just as much for his brilliance on the mound as it will be for the lack of support his team provided. Just as the 1987 Chicago Cubs will be forever remembered as the last place team that Andre Dawson won his historic MVP despite, the 2018 Mets will be known as the team that limited an utterly dominant deGrom to just 10 wins on the season.
What made both of these seasons so memorable was that the players were so great individually, while the teams they played on were just plain bad.
