Mickey Mantle in the All Star / MVP spot earns 1%. I are old.
I’d compete in that competition
I used Bagwell. 0.4%.

He was actually 27, posing as a 12 year old.
I’ve gotten myself into a slump. After 4 straight immaculate I’ve now gone 3 days of not. 7/9 today. Could not for the life of me think of a Brewer/Rockie or National/Red
Brewers killed me today. For Nationals I went with all Expos. Reds/Nationals I went with Pete Rose and it was still 16%.

Went Adam Dunn for Reds/Nats. Whiffed on Reds/Brewers and Nats/Rockies.
I was today years old when I found out Pete Rose played for the Expos
I somehow remembered that and used it.
Everyday there’s a team that reveals my knowledge gaps.
Today it was the Brew Crew’s turn.

Didn’t he get 4192 with them?
No, they traded him mid-season to the Reds. The Expos signed him because they they thought he might, but as you might expect, he was terrible, and they finally threw the Reds a bone so he could get the record with them. It still took him an entire nuther season to get it he was so bad.
Maybe he had the under.

It was kind of sad to watch. He was determined to get the record, no matter how many years of suck and bloopers it took. And I’m not saying I wouldn’t have done the same thing. You don’t work all of those years to get to the Hall of Fame then just piss it away.
Wait a minute…

I’m not sure when the transition happened, but Rose went from a player I wanted to watch as a kid (head first slides!) to a completely creepy human being who makes my skin crawl.
There’s that picture of him and Tony Perez taking a shit next to each other with giant grins on their faces. That’s what I think about when I think of him now.
Did not know this…will not google.
Same. I was perfectly happy not knowing about any of this Pete Rose information, the Expos and the expose.
There is a .2 percent name that I got despite my terribleness at Immaculate Grid for the Rockies and Nationals. And bonus, I played high school ball with him.
