why? If lots of guys did it but didn't lead the league maybe that shows you it was relatively easy to do in those years. sub 2 and leading league is cool oh, come on. as it is, 2 is just an arbitrary cutoff point that looks cool. it tells you just about nothing. i mean, if you want to look at what you're talking about, you just go look up who led the league in ERA+. hell, just last year arrieta had a considerably lower ERA (and better ERA+) but didn't lead the league because grienke happened to be lower. you know what else is dumb? pitching wins. It actually tells you nothing about how good the pitcher has been all year. watch out for more hot takes at my twitter page
