Well folks, despite there being a variety of hitter categories left (RBI, runs, OBP, to name a few), the names we've seen the last few weeks are the same ones showing up. Unsurprising really; the Sox have had some pretty consistent offensive performers (and non-performers!) over the years, so it makes sense they'd be the ones that are a constant in this part of the universe.
So, let's switch over to pitching. Today's category will center around the venerable but flawed pitching win. In a sense, though, that'll help to add some names to the list. I set the cutoff at 10 wins, which gives player names with both good and poor seasons. In all, there are 84 entries: how many can you name? Good luck!
