After a cup of coffee with the St. Louis Browns in 1911, Jeff Pfeffer made it to Brooklyn in 1913, where the righthander became one of the most durable arms of the Deadball Era.

Pfeffer reached an absolute summit of efficiency in 1914. He authored a brilliant 23-12 record with a 1.97 ERA over 315 innings, a performance that surely would have made him the Rookie of the Year had the award existed then. He also had a career-high 135 strikeouts

Pfeffer reached his peak during the memorable 1916 season. He delivered an incredible performance, winning 25 games with a fantastic 1.92 ERA as the Robins proudly took the National League crown. He was a key player on the team, finishing among the top five in wins and innings pitched, and he proved to be a versatile asset during the postseason. In the 1916 World Series against the Boston Red Sox, he made a crucial save in Game 3 and pitched a tough seven innings in the Game 5 finale. Although the Robins fell short in the series, Pfeffer’s stellar statistics from 1914 to 1916—67 wins and a remarkably low ERA, stand out as one of the most impressive three-year stretches in franchise history.

Pfeffer’s baseball journey took an unexpected pause in 1918 when he enlisted in the U.S. Navy during World War I. When he returned in 1919, he scored a fresh wave of success, recording two consecutive 16-win seasons and playing a key role in helping Brooklyn clinch another pennant in 1920. However, after facing some challenges at the start of the 1921 season, the team decided to trade him to the St. Louis Cardinals.

With the Robins, Pfeffer had a 2.31 ERA with a record of 113- 80.

Van Lingle Mungo arrived in Brooklyn in 1931, replacing the legendary Dazzy Vance after his own shoes split. A right-hander with a fastball and an often erratic temperament, he was the only bright spot on a series of struggling "Daffy Dodgers" teams.

In 1933, Mungo achieved a new level of performance, posting a 16-15 record with an impressive 2.72 ERA for a team that was 23 games below .500. During this peak, he demonstrated complete control of his pitching arsenal, setting a career-high 238 strikeouts in 1936 to lead the league. Nonetheless, his career also included notable wildness; he led the NL in walks three times, driven by his aggressive style of pitching that aimed to overpower every batter he faced.

Mungo enjoyed a fantastic run from 1934 to 1937, earning four straight All-Star selections. During this period, he proved to be incredibly durable, leading the league in starts and innings pitched in 1934 and posting two seasons with 18 wins. However, his time was also known for his fiery personality; he often made headlines for his holdouts, late-night escapades, and a temper that once led him to destroy a clubhouse after a teammate mishandled a routine fly ball.

Mungo suffered a severe arm injury in 1937, which finalized his era as a power pitcher, though he managed to stick around the Majors as a junkball hurler.  In 1941, he was traded to a minor league team.

As a Dodger, Mungo had a 102-99 record with a 3.41 ERA.

Jake Daubert didn't look like a ballplayer when he first emerged from the coal mines of Pennsylvania. After a false start in Cleveland, where he was discarded before ever seeing a pitch, the Brooklyn Superbas, the precursor to the Dodgers, took a chance on the quiet first baseman in 1910. He arrived as a "slashing chop hitter" with a game built on precision rather than power.

After a quiet start, Daubert experienced an impressive six-year streak of batting over .300, making him a regular presence at the top of the leaderboards. His peak occurred between 1913 and 1914, when he won consecutive National League Batting Titles. His 1913 season was particularly outstanding; he hit a career-high .350 and received the Chalmers Award, the precursor to the MVP. Besides his batting prowess, his speed was a significant advantage, often surprising opponents, as he stole 20 or more bases in six seasons with Brooklyn.

Beyond just the statistics, Daubert was a key figure in the era of “small ball.' He was especially skilled at bunting, setting a National League record with 392 career sacrifices, a record that still stands at the top of NL history. He combined outstanding bunt control with exceptional defense, often being compared to the legendary Hal Chase for his range and hands at first base. Daubert led the 1916 team to its first National League pennant, providing veteran leadership that helped transition the team from the rough early years to the organized success under Wilbert Robinson.

Daubert was traded to Cincinnati in 1919, leaving Brooklyn with 1,387 Hits and a Batting Average of .305.

After a brief run with the Cleveland Indians in 1924, it was back to the Minors for two years before the Brooklyn Robins signed Watty Clark in 1927.  

A left-handed workhorse who returned from two years in the minors to anchor a struggling staff. Known for a high-leg kick and control, he led the Robins during a tough stretch in the National League. In 1929, Clark matched few in durability, leading NL in innings (279.0) and starts. Despite league-leading losses for a mediocre team, he showcased command by leading NL in FIP (3.24), proving his performance was a valuable asset. He then had a stellar 1931 season, finishing 20th in MVP voting, with 14 wins and a 3.20 ERA.

In the 1932 season, he became a 20-game winner for the only time and led the league in FIP (3.13) for the second time. He was a giant in the rotation, logging 19 complete games and demonstrating the specialized precision that made him a nightmare for opposing hitters; however, he was traded to the New York Giants during the 1933 season, where he won a World Series.  A year later, Brooklyn reacquired Clark, and he would finish out his career with the now-named Dodgers in 1937.

For the Dodgers, Clark went 106-88 with a 3.55 ERA.
