I had Al Kaline as my first Tigers 40+ HR guess. I was trying to be too "cute" with my answer as my second guess was actually who I thought of first.

7/9

I had the same first guess for Detroit's 40+ homer guy. How did he never do that?

At least my percentages are consistently low. Most people are selecting players from the past 2 decades while I'm picking guys whose cards came out when I was a kid.

Reminder for the future for myself and everyone else: Gaylord Perry and Octavio Dotel played for like half of the teams in the majors.

The weird thing is he NEVER even hit 30 in a season. That blew my mind even more.

When I'm in doubt, I always try DOTEL! Looking at it, he would have fit in every single team/team box today. Amazing!

Edwin Jackson has literally played for about 16 teams. When in doubt, use him as a guess.

Stupidly lost a guess when I threw Ohtani's name in for the 20 win/MVP box without thinking it through. I knew he didn't belong there but that was my first thought and I ran with it.

Man, I'm lucky to get 5 right. Most of the time I get the personal record stats but I struggle with the two teams

+1. My mind goes back to the mid 90's right away. I realized the other day that I knew so much more about the entire MLB spectrum when I was a kid than I do now. I thought about it and I think it's because when I was a kid we had to sit through an hour of Sportscenter every day because we didn't know when they were going to show our team. I saw much more of every team back then than I do now. These days, when my kids want to see highlights, they pull up MLB TV and go straight to the game/highlights they want to see. No sitting through every other team's videos to see what they want.

You probably need expert knowledge in the AAAA All Star Team to get there.

I got lucky to get one square. Like others, I struggled with the Nationals squares and was coming up empty thinking on two of them. So I gave up and used someone who only played for Montreal and it worked.

Yes, you can use past iterations of a team. I used your Nationals/Rangers guess as well.

Cheating, of course, but i had a rarity score of .57 a few days ago. Website rounded it to 1, .57 was me manually adding it up. I wonder if it would round down to zero if less than .5
