Charlie Buffinton began his career with the Boston Red Stockings in 1882 and in the following year when the team renamed themselves the Beanaters Buffinton became a star Pitcher where he would win 20 Games each year from 1883 to 1885. The sinkerball specialist had an incredible 1884 campaign where he went 48 and 16 with a 2.15 ERA and he was third overall in bWAR for Pitchers. It should also be mentioned that Buffinton was a good hitter who would bat .255 for Boston over his career. Boston thought that Buffinton was done after a bad 1886 season and they sold him to the Philadelphia Quakers where he rebounded and would go on to win 233 Games.
