Originally posted by cavebird View PostWhile we are waiting for Bene, let's go for some all-time baseball trivia---five category pitchers edition. Don't worry, no correct answers will be spoilers; only one has not been drafted, and, well, Bene can't take him, and he won't be not drafted after that.
First: career edition: Only three pitchers in major league history have 300+ SV and 100+ Wins. All three also have 1299 or more K's, ERA's at or under 3.50, and WHIP's at or under 1.232, so true five-category pitchers.
Second: single season edition: Only three times in major league history has a pitcher had a season with 10+Wins, 20+ saves, and 150+ K's. All three seasons involved ERA's under 2.30 and WHIPs under 1.100, so again, true five category seasons.
Hint: Of the six answers, four involve players enshrined in the Hall of Fame (although not necessarily four different players); the other two answers do not.

Rollie Fingers for career, then? No idea about the single season.

Here is the next iteration of "I'll totally figure out the rest of my team after this pick".

Give me a little while - eating dinner and trying to manage projections. My latest projections have me taking approximately four more players.
