Not your typical 83-79 team -- trivia

Lemon didn't win 200 until 1957 I don't think? If it was 1956 it still doesn't work because Newhouser was gone. Garcia didn't win 200.

Lemon won his 200th in 1956, but Newhouser being gone screws it up. Can I add Sal Maglie and Don Mossi together?

No but you can try another team.

Again, I get close, but seem to come up short. The best I can find is the 1988 Twins had Niekro, Carlton, Blyleven, and staff ace Frank Viola.

It's hard because not all the pitchers pitched for the team for the entire season.

Was it the '79 Yankees with Catfish Hunter, Tommy John, Jim Kaat, and Luis Tiant, and then Ron Guidry as the staff ace?

And then oddly enough, didn't they actually repeat the feat and do it again in 1980 by replacing Catfish Hunter with Gaylord Perry?

John didn't hit 200 wins until 1980 so I think that's your answer

1980 Yankees: John, Kaat, G Perry, and Tiant, with Guidry the best pitcher although John had a slightly better year. Catfish was gone as of 1979. Of course they also had Gossage.

Yup, he din't hit 200 wins till 1980. So it is just 1980.
