When I see that category, I tend to go with someone I know has 400+ HRs and spent some time there but is known for playing for other teams. Sheffield for today. Griffey Jr the other day for CWS.

I like that strategy, and would have loved to have used Hank Aaron today, but I’d already used him for Brewers/Braves.  Sheffield didn’t pop into my head.  Thats a good pull.

Sheffield.  Unfortunately, his name didn’t enter my mind.

Ah, I misremembered. I used Griffey today for CWS and used Sheffield for Braves/Brewers. But used the same strategy and picked ole Nellie Cruz for the Brewers over 300 HR.

Scarey.  Exactly the same here.

114 today. Too many popular answers. Looking back at it, it could probably be done with all orioles.

Yep, this is what I try to do, too.

9/9 107

Spoiler

Brett Saberhagen, Darrell Porter, Johnny Damon

Eddie Murray, Keith Hernandez, Kenny Lofton

Pedro Martinez, Scott Rolen, Richie Ashburn

Always good to put Eddie Murray with two teams he's really not associated with.

Can be done with all Orioles. Total 17. 7 without looking up. StL/Phi had to confirm. Totally cheated with St L/KC.

I went down fast today.  The 40+ double category did me in.

Same - Ryne Sandberg and Eddie Collins were land mines I thought sure were safe answers.

I went with Sandberg too.  Thought of Billy Williams or Hack Wilson but thought Ryne would do it.  Lol

The 40+ double category might be the most difficult one they’ve ever had.  Glad I didn’t guess Billy Williams.  Best he ever did was 39.  That would have pissed me off.   LOL

BTW, Ryne Sandberge had a season with 36 doubles, 19 triples, and 19 homers.

Guess who did guess Billy Williams?  And that was after I’d guessed Sandberg.  Not to mention Davey Lopes and Rickey Henderson.  All wrong!  Tough day.
