Honestly?

I don't give a flying f*** what his record is.

I care what type of ERA and ERA+ he posts, whether his BABIP and BAA stats stay the same as they have the past two years.

I care about his walk ratios.

Those are the true indicators of a pitcher's value. Plenty of pitchers have put up crappy W totals while pitching on great teams. Plenty have put up gaudy W totals while pitching on shitty teams.

Wins are the most worthless stat in baseball. Worse even than saves, in my opinion.
