It’s a little strange to consider that Anthony DeSclafani represented a win above a replacement level player in 2023, right? Well, through the first two months of the season, he was actually the 31st-most valuable starting pitcher in Major League Baseball by FanGraphs’ Wins Above Replacement (1.2); and, if you want to make an 11-start stretch sound even more impressive, that value was good enough to place him 17th in the NL, well ahead of probable Cy Young winner Blake Snell.
