he guessed Cy Young in the square for Cy Young/HOF

 

 

Oh, lol. I actually said out loud "Cy Young did not win an award named after himself" while filling out today's grid

Good lord, I don't know if I can name half a dozen Royals players all time. It's like they don't exist in my brain

[Derwood]

I'm 8/8 and just staring at this stupid KC/ANA box

[Derwood]

8/9. Don't feel so bad about missing ANA/KC. Never would have guessed any of them

Today's Crossover Grid was fun

9/9

This is easily the dumbest successful grid I've completed. Each of my last 3 guesses were completely without merit and I expected to get each of them wrong.

[Derwood]

You went with Dotel when you had Neifi Perez right there for you?

[Derwood]

Starting today, Immaculate Grid no longer requires players to "qualify" for rate stats. In other words, you can now use Carlos Zambrano as a Cub who had a .300+ average in a season

7/9 today. Beware square #8 (WAS/200); there are only 4 possible answers

All four correct answers are MON, not WAS

That 9/9 is still slippery and elusive for me. I'm really proud to get an 8/9 considering the A's, Jays and Orioles were involved

My wrong guess was

Rarity scores will take a hit today, as there aren't a lot of options for the lower-left square.

I played right at 9am and my guess there registered as 100%

This is another one where you have to remember to include past locations for the franchise:

Of the 5, Henderson played in Oakland. Cobb, Tris Speaker, Eddie Collins, and Nap Lajoie all played in Philly

Also, only 3 options for the lower mid:

I knew about two of those, but I wouldn't have guessed the other two.

Drabek, Smiley, and Bob Friend (only because he played for my alma mater) were the only ones I could think of.

 

[Derwood]

Let's call this one 8.5/9 (I got my first answer wrong and reset, then went 9/9)
