And Aaron Boone.

Great day for me…9/9 with a score of 5. The Astros make it easier, as does having read Ball Four.

I was pleased with my 24 but 5 is impressive!
Astros row was Fernando Abad, Bill Hall, J.D. Davis (total 3.2%)
My Astros were Aaron Boone (0.9%), Dooley Womack (0.2%), and Kaz Matsui (0.5%).
I had to take a risk with my Met All-Star. I thought back to 1969 and was going to go with either Donn Clendenon (MVP of that World Series) or Cleon Jones. I went with Jones and was glad I did.

My Astros were Randy Knorr, Bill Spiers and Dwight Gooden. Good for .17 total.

I too used The Great Bill Spiers. I thought about using Gooden, but went with Ray Knight. I used Will Harris for the Washington connection, and that was a disappointing 12%. Gary Carter as an Expos All-Star was only 4%.
Jose Vidro was 1%, Edgardo Alfonzo 2%, Aramis Ramirez 1 or less than. I was doing really great until the stupid shared employers.
Aramis Ramirez has a prominent position in my personal pantheon of annoying opponents. The year he was traded from the Pirates to the Cubs we played all of our games against the Pirates in the first half and he killed us. Then he got traded to the Cubs at midseason and we played all of our games against the Cubs in the second half, and he killed us again.

Spiers, Danny Heep, Jeff Kent and Sean Berry.
Now that all the old grids are available, I want to find a grid and fill it up with all players that at one time played for the Astros. Think the most I have ever done is 6.
Better Stros 3B Platoon:
Walling-Garner
Spiers-Berry?

Thats pretty much even for me, if we are talking about when the duos played together with the Astros. Garner Walling in 86 and Spiers Berry in 96. Loved both duos.

Spiers-Berry was the weak-non-catcher-link of the '98 Stros juggernaut. And combined, they wrecked shit.

So it is definitely possible to go all former Astros. Had to look a couple up, but wanted to see if it was doable.

I had no idea that 3 of the 4 HOF answers ever played for the Royals

It’s really surprising more HOFers haven’t made a stop in KC at some point in their careers. I knew the obvious answer would have a high rarity score but I didn’t expect him to be basically the only one anyone would get.
They also haven’t had many 20 game winners.
No shit. I took the obvious one from the 80’s, and he’s getting something like 81%. There must not be many others.

Ugh, Florida again. If I think really hard, I can almost remember enough Marlins players to use up all of my fingers.
