Those pitching ratios seem off at first glance.

within the article, it says those are the 75% marks rather than the high water marks. Maybe that's why?

I always try to look at the actual league, and figure what it will take to finish 3rd in each category. In a 15-team league, you are just about guaranteed to win with those 130 points, and probably with a fourth place finish in each category.

In Boxscore, for example, here's what finished third in 2012:

Average - .267
Home Runs - 222
Runs - 837
RBIs - 819
SBs - 138

ERA - 3.73
Ks - 1080
Saves - 61
Wins - 83
Whip - 1.27

I also generally look through league history to get goals for each category. That said, in Only leagues I think it will be harder to do this as I would expect counting stats and ratios to get worse in the NL and better in the AL. By how much is the question.
