Can you name today’s #BaseballPlayerOfTheDay? Despite hitting 24 HRs for Oakland in 2002, watching Moneyball won’t be much help on this one

@johnrussell_34 @hallofgoodpod Unfortunately for Tulo, he was too good to be pretty good, and now he will never be in the hall of pretty good

@hallofgoodpod Has to be hall of pretty good.

I’m just a guy who misses watching Troy Tulowizki play for the Colorado Rockies

@txtechsean @hallofgoodpod Well done, Sean, and congrats on the marriage

@BBPOTD @hallofgoodpod Alfonso soriano easy peasy

@JessicaDBrand Thank you for the kind words, thank you again for sharing the game, and best of luck on future days!

This is fantastic! Glad to have found you. Thank you so much. I love that you can look at biographies, go on to Baseball Reference for more info. The hints are really cool too! I also love that not all your players are active or recently active. Really solid mix of eras.

Today's #BaseballPlayerOfTheDay played 20 years in Houston and led the NL in HBP 5 times (34!! in 1997) Go to baseballplayeroftheday.com to start your streak and come back daily for progressively more challenging players throughout the week Can you get a perfect week? #BBPOTD

@CChapro832 @hallofgoodpod @notgaetti Completely agree — not enough people talk about him!

@BBPOTD @hallofgoodpod He’s also a NEPTA over with @notgaetti I’d post a link but even 5 days later I don’t want to spoil it for anyone.

@JessicaDBrand @TalkinBaseball_ @Jolly_Olive @JM_RefGuess @ordinaryeffort_ @mikeisordinary Hey Jessica, So grateful you’ve played, loved, and shared our new game! It’s been so fun making this game to showcase players and provide baseball fans a new way to test their knowledge. Any feedback, suggestions, player requests, etc. — please let us know!

@TalkinBaseball_ @Jolly_Olive @JM_RefGuess baseballplayeroftheday.com You can play old games! They statskeep. It's perfect. Adding this to my rotation. @ordinaryeffort_ @mikeisordinary this feels like your type of game.

We have a NEW Baseball Daily game! Want to get this out there. Think like @TalkinBaseball_ and @Jolly_Olive with Ref Guess/@JM_RefGuess but played online. This is awesome. I've wanted this for genuinely YEARS. Curious to see how you all do! Link in reply so tweet not deboosted.

@scottlafdoe @hallofgoodpod Great catch! This is the first time in history that back-to-back Baseball Players of the Day were featured in Backyard Baseball 2005

@BBPOTD @hallofgoodpod Was also on the pro-roster for Backyard Baseball 2005
