@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Are old episodes of TWIB available? I could see myself watching every episode from 1979. Tried to do all guys who played for the Pirates during WS winning years. Just missed and used Grossman.

@RagedHaveLomo @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg The way it should be for people who grew up on 1980s Topps baseball cards and TWIB episodes.

All Pirates. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @spiderstumbled @UOJebby @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg I didn’t think too hard.

@RagedHaveLomo @RandyLinville @spiderstumbled @UOJebby @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg It absolutely does.

30/30 sucks. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @spiderstumbled @UOJebby @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Lee Burdette won 3 games in the 1957 WS for the Braves and also pitched for the 1964 Cardinals. But the Cards traded him to the Cubs in June 1964. So he didn’t play in the 1964 WS.

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Fun with dumb things. Only 32 players played on more than one team that beat NYY in the WS. Most of them played for the 1921/22 Giants or the 1955/63 Dodgers. Only five players played and beat NYY in the WS w/2 different franchises - Hoak, Groat, Labine, Skinner & Roger Craig

All Bucs. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@GavWill13 @benruttenberg @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 And Adam played Tucupita!

@benruttenberg @RagedHaveLomo @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 I heard that Luis Ortiz won money betting that you'd use him.

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg This’ll probably be the highest score I will get for Johnny Ray. Unless the PIT/played 2B square happens. All Bucs.

@RagedHaveLomo @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Bucs.

All Pirates. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

Data includes all amateur players acquired - all players drafted and signed; all international free agents signed; all non-drafted free agents signed - for the duration of Huntington’s tenure in Pittsburgh 2008-2019. 2/2

More evidence that Neal Huntington’s last few years of amateur acquisition hurt the Pirates org badly. This is fWAR added by year with ‘26 games thru 5/20. Yes Gerrit Cole is hurt. But even w/ a healthy Cole players drafted/signed by NH produced the 24th most fWAR in ‘23. 1/2

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Some great ones in the right hand column. All Bucs. All guys with the letter B to start their first or last name. RIP Buzz Capra who would play work for ATL/10 wins.

@RagedHaveLomo @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Bucs. Fun board.

All Bucs. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @spiderstumbled @UOJebby @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg My three all time favorite players and the 1985 outfield of dreams.

@RagedHaveLomo @spiderstumbled @RandyLinville @UOJebby @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Bucs.

All Bucs. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Any Johnny Ray day is a good day! 9 of my 10 all time favorites. Not pictured: Bill Madlock.

@RagedHaveLomo @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Great board dude. All Bucs and Randy will be proud of me.

Disappointed I couldn’t use Kemp along with Hendrick and Lezcano. All Pirates. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg 6 Bucs. Bucco drafted pick and Gibreath finished his career at AAA Portland in the Bucs system. Couldn’t come up with a Giant. Darren Ford is great. It’s pronounced wuh-let, I believe.

@RagedHaveLomo @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Meh.

8 Pirates. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Bucs

@RagedHaveLomo @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Yes.

Booooo 40 HR’s - the Justin Lawrence/Ryan Borucki of categories. All Bucs. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg I didn’t have Sanders. 8 Bucs and a Buc MiLBer.

@RagedHaveLomo @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Bucs. LaFail.

All Bucs. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg I tried to go all first round picks. Settled for 8 and Josh Bell (2nd round).

@RagedHaveLomo @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Bucs. Surprising number of duplicates.

All Pirates. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Ha! Even matched the middle square.

@RagedHaveLomo @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Bucs. Lots of duplicates because I don’t think there are many options here.

All Bucs. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@GavWill13 @RagedHaveLomo @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Bucs. Went with guys from this century for a change. Former Bucs Greg Allen, Phillip Evans and Brady Feigl are all teammates with Tijuana in the Mexican League. Ozuna now good for 300 HR squares.

@RagedHaveLomo @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg Bucs.

All Bucs. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@spiderstumbled @npc210 @RagedHaveLomo @GavWill13 @UOJebby @AtomK13 @benruttenberg I don’t think I know who Jim Tabor is.

@npc210 @RagedHaveLomo @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @AtomK13 @benruttenberg 10 HR/100 RBI is the best combination they have come up with in awhile. 672 correct answers. That would be a great Sporcle.

All Pirates. @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @npc210 @benruttenberg

@npc210 @RagedHaveLomo @GavWill13 @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @benruttenberg Zagurski!

@RagedHaveLomo @GavWill13 @RandyLinville @UOJebby @spiderstumbled @AtomK13 @benruttenberg All Bucs
