The only significant factor that is uncertain in this situation is health. Due to a variety of injuries, deGrom has only been able to make 26 starts over the previous two seasons, but when he has pitched, he has been as outstanding as ever, posting a 1.90 ERA.Prime MLB starting pitchers to keep a look out for in 2023Ohtani's greatest accomplishments for the Angels in 2022 came on the mound, a year after he hit 46 home runs. Ohtani would have won the AL MVP Award for a second straight year if it weren't for Aaron Judge's historic season, which was his best season as a pitcher. As it stands, he came in second place for the AL MVP and fourth for the AL Cy Young Award.Codify@CodifyBaseballThis Shohei Ohtani pitch from last season left his hand at 100.5 MPH and had a couple of inches of cut!

He eclipsed 200 innings for the first time in his career.This past winter, Rodon decided to forego the final year of his deal with the San Francisco Giants. This proved to be a wise business move, as the New York Yankees later signed him to a six-year, $162 million contract. Rodon trails only two pitchers who haven't yet appeared on this list in terms of WAR among all pitchers.Fireside Yankees@FiresideYankeesToday's pitch is Carlos Rodón's four-seam fastball, a pitch that according to Statcast's Run-Value was tied for the 2nd best fastball in the entire sport.
