"Tarik Skubal has the highest projections for a single pitcher across Steamer and ZiPS. He also led Paul Skenes in fWAR last year, and finished second to Chris Sale in fWAR in 2024."
"He is not the pitching fWAR leader right now, trailing both Cam Schlittler and Max Fried of the Yankees. That said, he's still top five in FIP- and top seven in xFIP- among anyone that's thrown 20 innings so far."
Tarik Skubal has the highest projections among pitchers according to Steamer and ZiPS. He led Paul Skenes in fWAR last year and finished second to Chris Sale in 2024. However, he is not the current leader in fWAR, trailing Cam Schlittler and Max Fried. Despite this, Skubal ranks top five in FIP- and top seven in xFIP- among pitchers with at least 20 innings pitched. He has one fewer start than Schlittler and Fried, raising questions about his status as the best pitcher in MLB.
