Only other SS I even know that would come close to those stats:

Ozzie, O, Larkin, Templeton. 

If it’s one one of those 4, I got nothing haha

Templeton it is....had 3 huge years leading league in triples all 3, nearly 600 hits and hitting around .320 from 22-24....traded for Ozzie and never was a star much after. Cleared 2000 hits

Question #231

Name these two pitchers

Up to age 27 these two pitchers had fairly similar careers and projections were also supposed to be similar even though Player A had a career ERA+ of 85 and player B had an ERA+ of 110, in fact player B had a decently better ERA, WHIP, FIP, strikeout per 9 and k/bb ratio.....nonetheless player A also got the huge contract.

Since the large contract of Player A....player A has went 31-41 with a 5.06 ERA, an 83 ERA+, 1.450 WHIP 2.42 k/bb. During that same timeframe player B has went 97-44 with a 2.82, ERA+ 150, WHIP 0.981 and k/bb 5.56

Finally, since then Player A has 445 strikeouts an Player B has 1628

My guess was Hudson and Zito. But then you framed it as currently pitching vs retired.

Verlander and Price/Felix?

Verlander and Price/Felix?

Nope....Felix was a stud through age 27, Price well above as well

You’ve named a former teammate though of the Player B

Jon Lester one of them?

Clay Bucholtz seems like a good Player A candidate.

Liriano or Wainwright?

Player B better than all those guys since Player A signed 6 years ago

Laley, go hack to question and analyze Player B’s numbers since Player A signed....pretty incredible 6 year totals and averages

Kershaw?

Homer Bailey

Yes

I just typed the sentence "Homer Bailey has two no hitters." and I felt bad because Tom Seaver only has one.
