All Season Pitching Leaders – Through 2014

MLB: Cincinnati Reds at Los Angeles DodgersLast week, we took our first look at the offensive leaders per season since 2011.  Today, we do the same with the pitchers for all of the games I’ve attended from 1984 through the 2014 season.  As with the hitters, there is little change from our first look after the 2011 season, but the time was right for another perusal of the stats.  We start with that most maligned pitching stat:

So Long Sergio

In a somewhat bizarre move, the White Sox began their rebuilding by moving Sergio Santos to the Blue Jays for a minor league pitcher.  Santos emerged as a closer last season in just his second year in the major leagues and his third as a pitcher.  The bizarre part was that he was under club control for 6 more years and was relatively cheap, signed for only $1 million for next season.

In games I’ve attended over the past 2 years, Santos has racked up the following stats:

Career Pitching

Wins Losses ERA Saves IP Hits Runs ER Walks Strike Outs HR Pitch Count Strikes HBP Appearances
3 2 4.13 10 28.333 22 13 13 8 37 2 443 281 0 29

2011 Halfway Point
