2017 was a great year for Yankee rookies. And no, I'm not just talking about Aaron Judge (although let's be honest here when you put up 8.2 fWAR in your rookie season you have the right to get talked about as much as you want). Just like Judge led all AL rookie position players in fWAR, Jordan Montgomery's 2.7 fWAR was good for first place among all AL rookie pitchers. In fact, he was the only AL rookie SP who eclipsed the 2 fWAR mark. Pretty good for a guy who grabbed the fifth starter job out of nowhere.
