Much like other seasons in the recent past, the Mets’ pitching staff in 2019 was a tale of two groups: the starting pitchers and the bullpen. Even despite the fact that the bullpen was overwhelmingly a disaster, the Mets still had the third best pitching staff in the National Leagues this season, as measured by fWAR—behind only the world champion Nationals and the juggernaut Dodgers. The Mets used 29 different pitchers in 2019 and that group was once again led by Jacob deGrom, who is the likely favorite to be a repeat Cy Young Award winner.
