In my solo league I was scouring through the free agent starting pitchers when I came accross something that I had never previously (in my life) seen before. There was an older pitcher who was obviously nearing the end of his career. He was never a really great pitcher. Having a lot of 11-12 and 8-10 type of years. But there was one year that stood out. He finished 20-0, with a 1.94 ERA. This reminded of why I love OOTP. Because things like this can happen. Reminiscent of Brady Andersons 50 HR season, this guy dominated in just one of the many seasons he played. He never did anything like it before that, and never came close afterwards.

Has anybody else ever seen something similar? A pitcher having a undefeated super season out of nowhere, then fading back into obscurity? A position player hitting 50+ homeruns with an AVG of .350+, and never hitting more than 25 any other year?
