Jim Gentile had an identical WAR (more then double his 2nd best season) to Roger Maris, led the league in RBI's (tied with Maris), and had a much higher OBP and higher Slugging% and OPS+ then Maris.
1961 Yankees had John Blanchard and Luis Arroyo. Blanchard, a backup catcher, hit .305 with 21 HRs. Arroyo was 15-5 with 29 saves and a 2.19 ERA. Neither player had another year close to those numbers.
