Notes:
John Tudor had an outstanding 12 year career, complete with a sterling .619 career winning percentage. His most notable season was 1985, where he assembled one of the finest campaigns of the era. After starting the season 1-7, he finished on a 20-1 run to end the year with a 21-8 record, a 1.93 ERA, and a league leading ten shutouts. Unanimous Cy Young Award numbers, but thanks to the remarkable sophomore performance by Doc Gooden that same year, Tudor failed to garner a single first place vote. After coming up short in the 1985 and 1987 World Series for the Cardinals, he finally won his ring with the 1988 Dodgers.
