One I always think of is Steve Carlton's 1972 season.
The team's record was 59-97. He was 27-10 with a 1.97 ERA, and struck out 310 batters. I'm stunned every time I think about what he did that year on that team.

Steve Carlton did not exactly fly under the radar though.

I agree... maybe "under appreciated" is more appropriate... IMO

Can you imagine how many losses they would have had without Carlton that year? Maybe 115-120?
