Best pitcher in baseball by all metrics got -3 on his H/9. Sub 1 FIP. Sub 2 xFip.

But Verlander gets a +2 overall with +3 Fip and XFip, striking out fewer batters and walking more ... +2.

K/9 are both at 72......Verlander is at a 7.97 K/9.....Gausman is at 10.89

That makes little to no sense whatsoever

Who are you calling the best pitcher in baseball

Through 45 innings pitched this year....Gausman hands down

Kevin Gausman
12th in ERA
8th in K/9
25th in WAR
15th in WHIP

So what are you basing your best pitcher in baseball argument on? Fandom?

Yo.....

1st in WAR ... 0.8 ahead of 2nd place (Rodon)
12th in ERA at 2.40
(better than Max Scherzer 90 , Gerritt Cole 87, and Walker Buehler 85)
2nd in XFip (Rodon 1st)
1st in Fip (Sub 1, which is unheard of)
1 of 3 SP to not give up a HR yet
1st in BB/9
15th in WHIP ( You clown ... his WHIP is sub 1 and players 4th-21st rank is 0.89-1.02 splitting nut hairs)
2nd in SIERA

If you want me to say not the best with old school metrics then sure hes not been the 'best'...but using advanced stats ...yea......

As I said the best pitcher this season.

Overall statistics are eerily very similar to Corbin Burnes 90...while Gausman is at 85.
