That's just awesome. Yeah ... Lieberthal is good but I've not seen him win one in any of the leagues I've been in. And that GG Pitcher ... there seems to be just too much luck involved.
Did you check your team pitching stats? One of the great things of having great defense is the crazy effect it has on your pitching. Keep an eye out on your opponent's batting average, your shutout victories. Shutout victories ... with the amount of people doing defensive-minded teams, I would not be surprised to find a team match or beat the 32 shutout victories. I came close in 2028 (with 28) but another team came closer with 30 wins.
Also, keep an eye out on your caught stealing. Lieberthal, a good backup with an equally good arm, and a pitching staff with high hold runners stat
will post remarkable caught stealing and stolen base attempt numbers that I feel nobody pays that much attention to, relative to the amount of people who create teams who like to steal.
