Mark Langston?
Did you pick these players via draft, salary cap or what?
I wouldn't expect Langston (an above average modern era pitcher) to be high on someone's want list, if you have 100+ years of history from which to pick.

It's Langston of 1984:
17-10
225 ip 188 hits
204 k 118 walks
1.36 whip
Plus, he starts every fourth day (important to my rotation).
We drafted with a salary cap, yes. $80 million.
Example: Babe Ruth, about $12 million.....
Langston was $4.3 mil

EDIT: Just a guess that just came to mind...is it walks plus hits per inning pitched?
