I don’t know if my guesses are good or not ( I.e. if they hit 40+ homers and less than to strike out) so it makes it hard to make other guesses

It’s a tough question. I was unaware till I came across it yesterday. Maybe Lefteroo will know the player and when you see the answer it will be even more impressive.

Lefteroo is going to try "The Big Cat," Johnny Mize. If he's not right, he's close.

👍
The last player to produce 40+ HR in a season while posting 40 or fewer Strikeouts, Cincinnati Reds slugger "Big Klu" Ted Kluszewski did so in three consecutive seasons (1953-55)
1953 - 40 HR and 34 K 1954 - 49 HR and 35 K 1955 - 47 HR and 40 K

He would call me Big Klu when I tried to build my biceps. Did not know anything about his power and low strike outs

Would have gotten with the arms hint, but got here too late. I use Klu periodically in the Immaculate Grid.
