Glavine?

He’s another 5x 20 win

Lemon?  If memory serves, he wasn't a big strikeout guy, though I don't know how many times he might've won 20 games.

EDIT: He might have played too much of his career before 1950 anyway.

Spahn?  No idea if he was a big K guy or not.

He’s perfect on the 0 200K.....13x over 200 but 2x before 1950

Damn.

The weather made me think of him for this.  My grandfather used to tell me that Braves fans would chant "Spawn and Sain and two days of rain," because apparently, those were the only starters in the rotation that they had any confidence in.

Good lord.  That sounds Ryan-eque, sans the Ks of course.

I knew it as "Spahn and Sain and pray for rain". 

I would have gotten the Feller question, too.

You're an Indians fan, after all.  ;)

He's my grandpa's favorite pitcher of all time.
