Greatest fluke seasons

I see a general trend. Player has an unusual season before 1986........it's a "fluke". Player has an unusual season after 1986, it is proof positive he was on PED's.

Just sayin'.

How bout Kevin Mitchell going from scrappy little utility player to best hitter in baseball in 1989?

Had one more good year, and though nearly always efficient at the plate after that, never had close to another full season under his belt.

Greatest fluke season for a pitcher: Aolpho Luque. He went 27-8 in 1923 on a mediocre Cincinnati team. Over the rest of his career he was a below .500 pitcher (167-171).

Mike Norris 1980

22-9 2.53 ERA

One of many promising early 80's Oakland A's pitchers Billy Martin successfully built up, and then promptly ruined.

mrvster,

Looking at the picture with the big fish, you kind of look like Robert DeNiro saying, "Hey, you talkin' to me?" or "What you lookin' at?".
