I used Sid Bream for the Braves/Pirates square and was amazed by his 19% rarity score and that he was also the top choice.

Going back in time, but I meant to look up the historical Astros .300 hitters. I couldn't think of anyone other than Altuve (when I did it, his guessing percentage was high 80s).AgRyan04 said:
Has there been a higher % than the 93% Gwynn had today?
Here's the list of lifetime .300 hitters who suited up for the Astros. Lots of pitchers!
- Jose Altuve
- Moises Alou
- Humberto Castellanos
- Frank Charles
- Terry Clark
- Alex De Goti (2 for 6 lifetime)
- Billy Goodman
- Danny Boone
- Charlton Jimerson
- Matt Keough
- Brandon Lyon
- Mike Magnante
- John Paciorek
- Steve Randolph
- Hector Rondon (1 for 3 lifetime)
- Jay Schlueter
- Will Smith (the pitcher; 1 for 1 lifetime)
- Raul Valdes (5 for 13 with 2 doubles!)
- Josue Valverde (1 for 2 lifetime)
- Tom Wiedenbauer
- Jesse de la Rosa
Alou is the other one I should have thought of....the rest there is a 0% chance that l'd have guessed

9/9, rarity score 32
Tough grid today! I think the ones that are just teams are the hardest.
Fortunately, my knowledge of obscure current and former Minnesota Twins players really paid off.
Rene Rivera is my second favorite Twin of all time, only behind Joey Gallo.
Dallas Keuchel, Rich Hill, Dylan Floro
Octavio Dotel, Jose Bautista, Goose Gossage

I feel like I know baseball, and I am educated but damn if I don't suck at this game. I go completely brain dead. I normally am only good for maybe 5 or 6 squares per day.

Only got 5/9 today. After you've used up all your guesses, if you have time, make sure to click on the Show Summary link and review the correct answers. You'll have some "oh yeah" moments to remind you some player names you knew, and can use that new found knowledge for a future game.

Atex Bregman (0.3%), Vinny Castilla, Jeff Bagwell (0.4 %)
Joe DiMaggio, DJ LeMahieu, Thurman Munson
Lance Berkman (0.2%), Todd Helton (0.08%), Jose Altuve (4%)
Surprised that LeMahieu is the highest Rockie/Damn Yankee. Thought for sure it would be a better choice than Jason Giambi and even Matt Holliday. Was too chicken to try Mike Hampton for the Rockies Silver Slugger, his 1% would have given me a rarity less than 50.
