What is the most surprising season you've seen from a player, like you didn't expect much of them and they just tear it up

I am playing the Kansas City Royals in a league I started in 1973. Before the 1980 season I traded for Pete Redfern to use as an emergency starter. He started the season on the reserve roster, after an injury I had to bring him up as a bottom of the rotation guy. He ended up starting 30 games, and went 14 and 4 with a 2.95 ERA. He went 2 and 1 in the playoffs and we won the series. Sadly that was the only good year he had for me and I didn't renew his contract in 1983.
