Today's was easy and I was cruising along until.....

 

I used Mike Trout for the GG/SS answer too and only then did I learn he's never won a gold glove. I was very surprised.

I haven't used Jaime Moyer yet.

I noticed that your rarity score will change throughout the day as more people play.   My score was a 91 this morning at 9:15, and I happened to open the tab again just now and saw that it was down to an 89.

Might have had 9/9, but I fat-fingered an answer and got dinged for it.  Really frustrating.

Can you just open it up in a different browser and redo it?  Just to see the proper score.

Yes, I think I could.  But I don’t care enough to do it.

I've come to realize I really suck at remembering guys who played on NL Central teams.

9/9 today, 113 rarity score

Spoiler

Nolan Ryan, Dave Stewart, Fergie Jenkins

Howard Johnson, David Wells, Jack Morris

David Cone, Roger Clemens, Dwight Gooden

Really wanted to see if I could make it all pitchers but couldn't figure out a pitcher for the Mets/Tigers, totally blanking on Max Scherzer and Verlander.  The immortal Dotel would have made it work, as would have Jose Lima, Hideo Nomo, Rick Porcello and Frank Tanana.

I had completely forgot that

Nolan Ryan was drafted by the Mets. I actually tried to use him as my Texas 20 game winner and failed.

I was blanking in that square for a few minutes and then it hit me.  Was trying to go for someone obscure but no one was coming to mind. And then all of a sudden I realized the most obvious choice.

I picked a Toronto pitcher who maxed out at 198 K’s.  Screw him!   By the same token, I picked a Mets pitcher who had one 205 K season, so I got lucky there.  I have this pathological tendency to want to get rare answers, rather than ones I’m certain are correct.  I had two answers below 0.1% today, and bother at 0.7%.
