Anyone Playing Immaculate Grid?

[Old Style]

5/9 for me.

Another board drops at 10:30am central.

I thought the career achievement had to happen while with that team. Bummer. 8/9.

 

Lowest % was 6 today.

I believe the rule is if it's something done in a single season (All-Star, Gold Glove, 30 SB) then it has to have happened with that team, but if it's a career number it doesn't have to be.

Also, Primetime deserves a proper photo, dammit!

Bill Buckner never had a 200 hit season with the Dodgers?!?!

Topped out at 193. Had 200 hits with both the Cubs and Red Sox. Ugh.

wow Baseball Reference bought it, that's fun

Took one look and suddenly realized that my general hockey knowledge ended in about 1998. I know those two logos are for the Predators and the Wild, but I couldn’t name a single player that ever played for either team.

I think they were already using BR as their resource (the photos matched with the BR photos).

 

The 200 hits column was surprisingly hard, I only got the Yanks one with

Yeah. I looked up the Dodgers after the fact and was not particularly ashamed of having missed it.

the 2nd one today I did pretty well at.  Pretty sure it's my best rarity score yet at 58 

Spoiler

JD Martinez/Darryl Strawberry/Maury Wills

Beltran/Doc Gooden/Lou Gehrig

Joe Morgan/Tug McGraw/Richie Ashburn

I've found that the older players are, the less they're used even if they were huge stars.  I used Frank Robinson for CIN/BAL earlier today and he was at like 5%

[Andy]

I got 8/9 and it drove me nuts I couldn't think of Phillies/Mets. If I had I would've gotten a sub-200 rarity score, which I've never done.

Spoiler

Josh Reddick/Piazza/Jackie Robinson

Randy Johnson/John Olerud/Gehrig

Bobby Abreu/blank/Jimmy Rollins

The new feature where they give you the most popular answer in each square is a great way to hate yourself when you can't think of anyone.

I was surprised that there were 14, 14, and 17 players for the teams listed that had done it.

I guessed Corey Seager first and the Maury Wills and that cost me the immaculate grid.

I've noticed that too. I used Willie Mays for some really obvious square for him to be in a few days ago (Giants MVP, I believe) and it was under 15%

I thought about Olerud and had no memory of him being a Yankee.

only 11 total ROY winners between the Sox and Mariners... I guessed all 4 of those as well.
D'backs only have 9 with 100 rbi seasons and Marlins with 13, but at least they're a bit easier since they're more recent

[sweetpeteman]

7/9

Took one guess towards the WS ROY and gave up on that. Also didn't get Miami/Seattle

AJ Pollack/Randy Johnson/Luis Gonzalez

Edwin/blank/ Miguel Cabrera

I blew through the top row

Pollock / Big Unit / Goldschmidt

And got the bottom right

Trout

Before wasting me guesses on ROTY

[Andy]

I got 7/9, didn't even get to the point of making an Arizona/Seattle guess or a White Sox ROTY guess. Wasted a guess on incorrectly writing a 100-RBI Mariners guy into a ROTY Mariners square.

Backed myself into some trouble by making Ichiro the Mariners ROY pick, and then got stumped for a few minutes on the Marlins/Mariners player until Logan Morrison came to me.

Also poor White Sox, all 3 of their boxes have really low accuracy numbers (49%, 49%, 53%)

I had the same problem, had some sweaty palms when I got the White Sox ROY right, and then I was down to Mariners/Marlins for 9/9 and it took me ages to get to Jean Segura

[Derwood]

Today's grid has my mind spinning. I have so many "mmmmmaybe?" guesses in my head and I'm too much of a coward to try any of them

EDIT: Well, one of them (SF/SD) turned out correct, the other ones did not. 6/9
