Great Individual Seasons

PostWed Feb 04, 2015 7:26 am

Yesterday I was looking back at some of my old teams for a league I am participating in and I noticed in my 2008 season I had something that I had rarely if ever seen before on strat teams.
I had 3 players score 100+ runs, hit 30+ home runs, and drive in 100+ RBIs.

Grady Sizemore - 117 runs, 41 HR, 116 RBIs
Nick Markakis - 103 runs, 30 HR, 106 RBIs
Hanley Ramirez - 123 runs, 36 HR, 104 RBIs

and nearly had a 4th with
Justin Morneau - 92 runs, 28 HR, 103 RBIs

I went and looked back and I only found 3 times in the history of baseball where a team has had such a feat.
The '29 Phillies, '53 Dodgers, and '04 Cardinals.

Was curious if anyone has gotten 4 players like this in a 20XX season.

An All-Coors-league with every team playing in Coors? There must have been quite a few season records set in that one.

One more, from 2002 ($80 mil, no theme):

Thome 135 runs, 55 HRs, 139 RBIs
Glaus 106 runs, 39 HRs, 133 RBIs
Bonds 180 runs, 61 HRs, 160 RBIs
Jones 116 runs, 39 HRs, 122 RBIs

Almost 5: Dunn 111 runs, 34 HRs, 87 RBIs

http://onlinegames.strat-o-matic.com/team/567702

They're out there, but it is a surprisingly rare thing. Lots of teams were just shy (short a few runs, or short a few RBIs).
Just fun to go thru the old sets every now and again...
