Cole is an absolute beast for sure. He posts almost every year, and really has been a valuable piece to all the teams he’s been on. In my opinion he should be chasing his 3rd Cy Young not his 1st. Should have won over Verlander in 2019 and really should have edged out Ray 2 years ago.

@bakaraka5880 10 месяцев назад

ray deserved the cy young verlander possibly deserved the 2019 cy young because of no hitters but it was controversial yes

@johndamario2546 10 месяцев назад

@@bakaraka5880Ray did not deserve it, he was great but that was a fluke year. Ray had been garbage a couple years prior to 2021. He fell off and regressed heavily in 2022 and then couldn’t pitch all of 2023.

@snerdterguson 10 месяцев назад

You can't be a worthy Cy Young winner for 2021 because of what happened in 2022 and 2023? That's just nonsense. It is like when people say Judge didn't deserve MVP for the 2022 regular season after a bad post season. They are awards for a specific period of time. Period. Anything before or after that period is irrelevant.

@matthew01234 10 месяцев назад

How was the $215M Kershaw contract not mentioned? I agree that the Scherzer contract was better for the team but Kershaw's was more expensive and by my count is the most expensive contract in MLB history that actually worked out from beginning to end. That's worth recognition.

@scottwasco3249 9 месяцев назад

Respect for you for admitting you were wrong. The craziest thing about Cole is he really isn't blowing hitters away with his 100MPH fastballs nearly as much. He tops out around 97-98 and his secondary pitches this season were deadly. That's the sign of a guy who will still continue to dominate well into his late 30's.

@willppp 10 месяцев назад

Here is the reality Cole’s motion is so natural he isn’t hurting himself throwing the high 90s/100 he does he just doesn’t have a violent motion that would lead to those injuries. Look at DeGrom to see what I mean he is much smoother than anyone out there

@yankeefederer1994 10 месяцев назад

He's also built for velocity. Some players have the perfect mix of smooth, explosive, and power.

@rickdiaz3657 10 месяцев назад

Another thing is that he does not abuse throwing slider or sweeper, that pitch is the one that hurts the elbow the most. I think that's what has led Ohtani to have 2 Tommy John surgeries.

@willppp 10 месяцев назад

@@rickdiaz3657 I also think that it is his really short delivery that doesn’t have that much arm movement especially compared to someone like Ohtani. To me the incredible thing is that Scherzer has just started really with the injury issues. With just how violent his arm motion is. I guess it is because he was never getting to 100 it saved his arm from the extra damage of high velocity.

@mikio6444 10 месяцев назад

As an Ohtani fan and Yankees hater. I agree this dude has been a consistent workhorse over his contract. It is important with all the injuries we are seeing with hard throwing starters, availability is the most important asset to have these days. He has held up his end of the bargain and more for the Yankees. The rest of the team not so much.

@mikeyliberti4137 10 месяцев назад

Everyone forgets that Cole was dealing with a hamstring injury in September 2021 and pitched through it which ultimately lost him the Cy Young to Robbie Ray, and could argue was a huge reason he got rocked around by the Red Sox in the wildcard game.

@johndamario2546 10 месяцев назад

Robbie Ray absolutely robbed Cole in 2021 when Cole was equally as good. The following year in 2022 Ray was awful and also cost the Mariners in the playoffs while Cole carried the Yanks through the entire ALDS. 2023 Ray has been out the entire year, time has proved who actually deserved that CY Young.

You can't count on just 2 guys, Cole and Judge to take a team to the postseason. Take away the 2-month absence of Judge, it might have actually made a difference. That's how important these 2 guys are to the team. Give these 2 guys a solid team and a WS ring would be a great possibility. “The saddest thing in life is wasted talent, and the choices that you make will shape your life forever.” Chazz Palminteri.

If I had to guess I’d guess I think Cole was prone to give up HR’s because he assumed his stuff was good enough to leave pitches in the heart of the zone. If it wasn’t super sharp it’d get tagged, and sometimes if it was sharp it’d still get tagged just based on location

You should go to his BBRef page. He hasn't JUST had one good season for the Yankees. He has a second, fourth and ninth place finish in CY voting, along with an almost certain CYA this year. His career ERA as a Ya Lee is 3.12 and his whip is barely over 1, and he averages 11+ K per 9. Even in his bad year, he had an era of 3.50 and ked the league in strikeouts. That's not exactly bad.
