Ranked among MLB players who qualify (W, IP, K: 10+ games; ERA, WHIP: 100+ IP) that season; only the top 50 are shown. How each stat qualifies: glossary.
| GP: Games the player appeared in, however briefly. | W: Games in which this pitcher was credited with the win. | L: Games in which this pitcher was charged with the loss. | ERA: Earned runs allowed per nine innings pitched — lower is better. Under 3.00 is excellent. | IP: Innings pitched. The decimal counts outs, so 6.2 is six innings and two more outs. | K: Batters this pitcher struck out. | BB: Times the batter reached first base on four balls. | WHIP: Walks and hits allowed per inning pitched — lower is better. Around 1.00 is elite. | ||
