I think Gonsolin isn't listed on FanGraphs because the default Min IP for their chart is Qualified which would be 162 innings. If you drop it down to 130 innings, Gonsolin shows up with a WAR of only 2.7. So does Spencer Strider at 4.9.
For comparison, here are the top 10 from BaseballReference which has Nola second behind Alcantara by a wide margin along with the top 21 from FanGraphs. I don't know the difference between how the 2 sites calculate WAR but clearly it can result in some significantly different values.
