I don't know. deGrom's first Cy Young season seems more impressive than Greinke's.

Its not how many runs you give up, its when you give up the runs. If you give up 20 runs in 6 games...but 15 runs in one game in a loss and the other 5 games you give up 1 run and win all five and are 5-1....thats better to me then giving up 15 runs over 6 games but losing all 6 by 1 run.......this is just the theory....
Degrom's team was well over .500 Zack's team was well below .500...yet Zach's team won a large portion of his starts... to me team wins matter ...stats matter too of course.....but putting all together...i like Grienke's season much better...imo i havent checked but will assume the run support was more or very close for DeGrom as well. adjusted for NL/AL..
