Since we are on the Net54, let's look at a player from 1954. Brooklyn Dodgers pitcher.
Not much of a first season - only 2 games. But both games started he pitched a full 9, won two complete games. Had 27 strikeouts in 2 games. 2-0. 2 complete games 13.5 SO/9. ERA 0.00. First game allowed 3 singles and struck out 15. Hurt his arm next season during spring training. Went 8-6, pitched in 2 games in 1955 WS and was done. |

Yup, there are a bunch of them. The problem I alluded to is determining the difference between one cup and two cups, which of course is further complicated by the varying volume of the cups.

"complicated by the varying volume of the cups"
hi frank-
I fear we have ALL been haunted, at one time or another, in regards to (at least in baseball terms), the volume of OUR cups! great post!

Rocco Baldelli was a top prospect, whose first and second years with the Rays were essentially identically before being diagnosed with a chronic illness which curtailed his career and effectiveness.
Remarkably he has managed to hang around in the bigs this year with the Twins.

Dave Stapleton is the only player to have a lower batting average every year he played.

I had to check if Lefty O'Doul's monster year was his first full season and it was his 2nd. He had a smattering of appearances across several years prior too, so he would clearly be out.

The Bird reminded me of Dave Rozema. He was supposed to be the Bird II. In 1977 he went 15-7 with 16 complete games, pitched 218 innings and won rookie pitcher of the year and was 8th in Cy Young voting. Pitched through the '86 season but never topped his rookie year.
