Edgy MD Site Manager Posted October 11, 2023 Posted October 11, 2023 My Yankee/Diamondback was Randy Johnson. That kind of put me in a bind, because I then needed a 3000-strikeout Diamondback. Torn between Curt Schilling and Zack Greinke, I gakked when I went for the latter. Greinke is currently sitting at 2,979. In other words, he's within a Mark Prior start of 3,000 strikeouts.

Frayed Knot Old-Timey Member Posted October 19, 2023 Posted October 19, 2023 Turns out that the year Rico Carty hit .366 for the Braves he missed 25 games and notched only 175 hits ... so that blew my immaculateness.

The Sub3.00 ERA line makes it easy to put in relievers or pitchers who didn't pitch much just as the 1 team one would be easy for one-time call-ups (not that I used any of those, just thought of it later).
