Chris Sale

I've always thought Chris Sale is one of the most fun pitchers to watch in the whole sport, and honestly a little terrifying if you're a lefty hitter. That whip-thin 6-foot-6 frame, the low three-quarters slingshot delivery, and a slider that looks like it falls off a table from the third-base dugout, it's pure chaos in the best way. For years he felt almost cursed by injuries after he left Boston, so when he finally put it all together for the Braves in 2024 and grabbed his first Cy Young, I just grinned. There's something deeply satisfying about a guy this stubborn and competitive getting his due. He pitches angry, and I love it. One of my favorite arms of his era, no contest.
