Goose Eggs (fanaticus.social)

A couple years ago FiveThirtyEight published a new stat they called "Goose Eggs" to track the number of clutch relief innings a reliever came into and left with a goose egg on the scoreboard. I thought it was a great stat--much better than saves--for tracking the best relievers in the game.

Does anyone know if someone still tracks this stat? Is there a NL/AL leaderboard somewhere?

I found a place that tracked these for 2023 in case anyone else is curious: https://sportrelay.com/mlb/scoreless-outings-and-goose-eggs/

Still looking for current season stats.
