I spent most of the afternoon trying to come up with a D-Back RFer other than Carroll and finally gave up.

Gambled on Greg Vaughn being a 1st round pick! Also put in Millwood and when I saw his picture I was like, "Nope, that's not the guy I was thinking of"....had to look it up afterwards - it was John Rocker I was thinking of

If you had asked me how confident I was that AJ Burnett had played for the Dodgers/Yankees I would have said 9/10. So that was a bit of a setback to my psyche!

Interesting... and the team that he was most well known for, the Pirates, isn't one of the teams today.

Excellent point

My first thought of him is always with the Dodgers - but that's only because that's where he was when I started ripping baseball card packs as a kid.

I did have to look up the ERAs - I wasn't sure if he was ever sub-3.00

He's one of those guys that I keep in my back pocket from a teams standpoint because he ended up playing in a lot of different uniforms

Goes to show how each baseball fan has their own perspective of the Game. In my mind's eye I only see Candelaria as a Pirate, particularly as the '79 "We Are Family" Pirates and as such did not even think of him when doing today's grid.

Am I the only one who thinks Frank Robinson has somehow turned into the most underrated all time great? He played at 6% in that square - I was expecting like 20-30%.

Grid #502 Immaculate! Rarity 62
Dizzy Dean, Frank Robinson, Boog Powell
Darrell Porter, Gaylord Perry, Bo Jackson
Michael Wacha, Dennis Eckersley, Jimmie Foxx

Wacha could have also been used in the StL/KC spot on the grid and considering that Darrell Porter was a big chunk of my rarity on this grid I probably should have used him there. Used four HoFers, an iconic superstar and a well known bat of one the '70s best teams and Porter is my biggest rarity chunk by a pretty big margin. Oh wells.

He is a player I use often on the grid and I can't think of a time I took a significant rarity hit using him. Gaylord Perry is another HoFer that because of his lengthy career with many teams I use often that usually has a rarity under 5%, today he was 9%.

I played Boggs too early before I realized I had a really good chance of a personal low score....in hindsight, I would have liked to have sat on that one and thought about it a little more
