Gubicza’s time as the team’s best Starting Pitcher was in the late ’80s where in 1988 he would finish 3rd in Cy Young voting while leading the league in bWAR for Pitchers. It would also be his first and only 20 Win Season. 1989 was also a very good year as he would go to his second All-Star Game and finish second in bWAR for Pitchers. Also worth noting is that Gubicza would lead the AL in HR/9 three times. The only other Pitcher to do that is Walter Johnson.
The Royals inducted Gubicza into their Hall of Fame in 2006.
