I’ll remind you that Luis Castillo led all of Major League Baseball in ‘losses’ during the 2021 season just before the Seattle Mariners unloaded the west wing of their farm system to acquire and, subsequently, sign him to a nine-figure contract. Individual pitcher losses are a comedy in themselves, a bygone statistic that never really carried much merit anyway then, much less now in the era of teams tanking on purpose.
Jordan Lyles leads all of Major League Baseball in losses, to date, and is 0-10 on the season. Has he been good at all this year?
