1920 Pete Led League with 27 wins, 173 K, and a 1.91 ERA. As good as Pete’s 1916 card, but in this one he’s a Cub.

Most Antonelli’s are balanced toward RH and give up a lot of HRs. 1959 makes him a hard Lefty vs LH, might get used in Lefty parks, currently is not used very often

Very good pitcher who doesn’t seem to translate great to Strat. That 1967 Phillies card would be different and an improvement.

12 year Angels starter, and the 5L ’89 card, looks like it could get some usage, instead of that current card.

Whitlow Wyatt led the League with 22 wins and a 1.05 WHIP, finished 3rd in MVP vote.
Led Dodgers to World Series. This would be a great add for prewar Dodgers.

A balanced Zito, would be a good add to exp A’s.

Great list Andy, thanks!

I'd add Fritz Peterson to it. 1969 would be his best card. The current one is not very good.

Added him and 66 Koufax, though that Koufax is not an improvement.

Tiny Bonham 1942 - 21 game winner who led the league in winning %, CG's, SO's, WHIP and FIP. Huge improvement over his 1941 card (which is his only card in the set).

And thanks Andy for all of your hard work!

1978 Bob Knepper, Giants 17-11 2.63 1.165 Career bests in WINS & HR9. Second career bests in ERA, H9, with near career low WHIP. This would be Knepper's best Giants card.

1981 Bob Knepper, Astros 9-5 2.18 1.060 Career bests in ERA, WHIP, H9 & HR9 in strike shortened season. This would be Knepper's best Astros card.

1981 Burt Hooton, Dodgers 11-6 2.28 1.103 Career bests in ERA, BB9 & HR9 in strike shortened season. Hooton was renowned for his signature pitch, the knucklecurve.

1976 Vida Blue, A's 18-13 2.35 1.109 While it would be tough to match the numbers from Blue's 1971 season, 1976 was Blue's second best season in a year when Charlie Finley was in the process of breaking up the A's. This card would probably be more usable than the 1971 card. Blue won 200+ games in his career and deserves a better card.

1965 Sonny Siebert, Indians 16-8 2.43 0.981. Led A.L. with 4.15 SO/BB ratio. Career bests in WHIP, BB9, SO9. 2nd career best in ERA, H9. Won 140 career games, with a .551 WIN% pitching for some bad teams. Just 1 ATG card.

1968 Bobby Bolin, Giants 10-5 1.99 0.985. Career bests in in ERA, WHIP, HR9, H9 and near career best in BB9. Bolin pitched in relative anonymity his entire career, and in typical fashion, had his best year in 1968 when Bob Gibson & Juan Marichal stole all the NL pitching headlines. Was 2nd in NL in ERA & H9, & 4th in WHIP. Bolin may be the only starting pitcher from the '50s, '60s or '70s with 170+ IP and an ERA under 2 without a card.

1988 Joe Magrane, Cardinals 5-9 2.18 1.113 Led N.L. in ERA. Career bests in ERA, WHIP & H9. Just 1 ATG card.

1943 Max Lanier, Cardinals 15-7 1.90 Career best ERA & W-L%. Led NL in ERA.

not 100% your looking for name but I did put this one in the nominations thread.

1904 Rube Waddell. Current at 1905 which is his triple crown year however I believe, relative to the year and despite the numbers being similar, his 04 year had a much wider gap to the next pitcher with a 11.3 WAR. Not sure many players with WAR > 10 don't reside in current ATG9

thanks
