1.55 -- Win Probability Added for Johnny Cueto, which is first among pitchers and second among all players, trailing only Jayson Werth. A WPA of 1.55 indicates that Cueto has increased the Reds chances of winning the games in which he has pitched by 155 percent this year. Last year's pitching leader was Clayton Kershaw at 4.69.
