Who you start with is Vance; he's the first player on the list (working backward from #200) to have two MVPQ seasons, and his '24 is the best year anyone's had thusfar. When we hit a 10 wins above replacement season, I'm going to call that an inner circle season. Vance didn't get there, but he's closest thusfar. His ERA+ matches the other top arms, he obviously has the most career value (although Sabathia goes by him in 2012) but he's got the two MVPQ seasons.
We also have our first 3/4/5 translated slash. It's Berkman. If he had an MVPQ I'd slot him right now into the all time team.
Instead, we add Vance. The best arm so far.
