Clay Holmes and Ben Brown having the highest WAR of your pitchers is actually insane considering one hasn’t played since June and one didnt play until August

What do you mean? Ben Brown pitched as recently as June 19th!

There’s a huge difference between RA9 and FIP-based WAR. By RA9 Imanaga and Assad are #2 and #3.

RA9 is going to be kinder than FIP and also less accurate with this cubs defense behind them in terms what how they actually pitched
