I am looking back to various saves to respond. I know it has happened, and it’s good to know that it can happen IRL as well. [Maybe someone jacked up the TCR figure for MLB 2023??]

Two more examples are pitching for Atlanta. Strider and Freid were unheralded pitching prospects. They had mediocre - to be kind - minor league stats. (I am no Braves fan, so don’t know if they had injury problems. The various years with minimal innings pitched suggests that.) There was no reason to expect that they would have any success as SP in the major leagues. If they had performed as expected, Atlanta would not be crowned already by the media as the “best team in baseball”. [Apparently, to be a baseball writer, it helps to have a very short memory - goldfish! - say, of what happened to the Braves in last year’s playoffs.]
