Huston Street has pretty gaudy numbers too but of course is helped out immensely by Petco & only 33 IP!

Chapman will be the most expensive as he'll have the most IP.    The most expensive as ranked $/IP will be Street, followed by Kimbrel, and then Chapman

Street is going to be far and away the most expensive pitcher in the database in terms of $/IP.  I don't think Kimbrel and Chapman are going to be quite as pricey as Mike Adams, but they'll be in the top 10 and almost certainly the top 5.  They'll blow away everyone but Gagne with the same kind of meaningful IP.

Surely with so many individuals with such stellar stats in the same year they'll end up being reduced by normalization? They'll probably still be good, but not so good that they are absolutely the best players in the sim.

If their ERC+ numbers are astronomical, they should still be mega-studs despite normalization.  At least that's how I understand it  But I'm not so good at the maths.
