I don't know anything about Melvin Mora except for this throwaway comment from The Wire

HoF 2B Pudge Rodriguez (I believe this is my first time using him for the grid)

Genesis Cabrera is joining my cohort of grid legends

How is that Mets row so good?

Buehrle and Halladay were complete guesses.

I wasn't sure if Keuchal had 20 wins, so went with Cole (turns out, he did have 20 Ws for Astros that one year)

As @mlbimmgrient.bsky.social and I often discuss, recency bias can often be a good thing for grids!

Recent addition to my utility GG randos gang (which includes Josh H. Smith and Jared Triolo)

I'll take it!

Great set of teams today.

Using Curt Casali instead of Rogers would've done better, I think.

Also, idk why I thought that Lou Trivino played for LAD. Thankfully didn't go for it, but I knew he'd done LAD/SFG in back to back seasons (by that time I'd filled Beaty in)

Sigh, Michael Brantley doesn't have a .300 career!

Back after a few days off the grid (ha!) with a bang!

Most surprised with the Toro score here

Thanks to @sridharpappu.bsky.social for the Antone pick; a weird name will always pique my interest.

Would Soto work better than DeGrom? Hmm

I remember watching a decently fun Angels team around this time and him always being called "Captain Jack Mayfield" that always stuck with me

Not bad at all today!

Just thinking about 30 HR seasons (across MLB, not just Cubs) over the last 5-6 years, I'm trying to think of a more unremarkable hitter.

Maybe Odor?

I had *so* many answers for CWS/ATL, but only one for WSH/ATL. Oh well

Is PCA the worst 30 HR guy in recent history?
