Tom Tango came up with the idea of assigned wins a few years ago. The idea was to create a score for each pitcher in the game, and the pitcher with the best score would get the win for the winning team, and the pitcher with the worst score would get the loss for the losing team. For someone like Blake Snell, his actual record and his assigned record are exactly the same. For Jacob deGrom, his record is quite different than his assigned record. He was not going to win 20 games with the Mets, but losing nine looks like it wasn’t really his fault. If his record was actually 13-3, there would have been less arguing about his credentials during the season.
Note Kyle Freeland has a large negative gap as well.
