Misiorowski's Numbers Don't Look Real

JUNE 16, 2026

The best staffs and arms in the game right now, by team ERA and our form score.

It's a pitching day, and the Yankees have quietly built the best staff in the game by ERA. But the loudest arm belongs to a Brewer with a WHIP under one and an ERA most pitchers would frame.

Best staffs on the mound

Team ERA — the whole staff, starters and bullpen. Lower is better.

The Yankees top the team-ERA ranking at 3.30, just ahead of the Dodgers at 3.32 and the Braves at 3.34. The Dodgers own the tightest WHIP of the bunch at 1.08, so the gap is razor-thin.

Green on the mound

Top arms by form — our 0–100 pitching score from ERA & WHIP. A shimmer means a historic pace (sub-2.00 ERA, sub-1.00 WHIP).

Turning it around

Pitchers whose form — our 0–100 score from ERA & WHIP — climbed most this week.

Three pitchers gained five points of form this week, with Yamamoto the headliner at 87. Michael Soroka and Kevin Gausman climbed alongside him to 71 and 69.
