Who are the usual suspects... Mikey Lolich finished second in strikeouts in 1970 (high point of an otherwise off year) and repeated that position in 1972....second place in K’s was familiar territory for Lolich, having taken a bow to Sudden Sam McDowell in 1965 and 1969 ....Who’s new: Vida Blue....new comer and 1971 is also a career punch out high....encore thwarted due to a sit out in 1972.... Coleman, was an under the radar hard thrower.....Finished 5th in strikeouts wearing a Senator’s uniform in 1969 ....2 years with later a new club and Coleman's revitalized career....combined with Lolich to account for a little over half of the staff’s 1000Ks....Common ground: all reached their career best strikeout totals in 1971.
