Immaculate Grid: Show Off Your Useless Baseball Depth Knowledge!

My brain just does not work in the way needed to fill this out.
If I were given 20-30 names, and 2-3 minutes to put the right names in I could probably do pretty well, but pulling the names from thin air just doesn't happen for me.

Yeah, after day 2 of this, I have officially accepted that this game came 20+ years too late for me to have a chance. I will share my 6/9 embarrassment to help others feel better before I retire.
Wrong answers:
(1.) Carney Lansford for A's/Orioles
(2.) A true desperate LOL of Rod Carew for Twins/500+ HRs (He had 92 career HRs! Yeah, played before my time, but, yikes, probably an all-time bad guess.)
(3.) I truly cannot even remember who it was, which is possibly the saddest part of all. This game is essentially me blindly throwing darts using names that I can remember from old Sega MLB games.

Watch for a neat small change coming to this game soon...it's not a big one but something I think lots here will enjoy.
So that means 9/9? Congrats.
Electric shocks after a wrong answer? That would mean after a typical game, I wouldn't remember my own name.
9/9 again.... whoooo-eeeee
I don't think I'll be going 3 in a row. I spent half the day Remembering Some Guys who played in the 00s.

9/9...I'm fairly proud of my 0.02% for Tom Phoebus. Be nice to have some context on my 212 rarity score...do they list the daily leaders for that somewhere? And can someone explain to me why they don't have a photo for WILLIE FREAKIN' MAYS?!?
I‘m not very good at this game. For yesterday’s 500HR/3000 hits, I was like, “oh, I’ll just put the greatest hitter ever.” Wrong. Ok, let’s try the other greatest hitter ever. Wrong. Then I tried the other guy who was the greatest hitter ever. 0-3. I didn’t know 3000 hits was so hard.
Even if it's because of wartime, one of my little nuggets I keep upstairs quite a lot is that Buckner retired with more hits than Ted Williams...
Make sure to check out your rarity score by clicking show summary. I had a little hand in making that a reality, that's the item I was teasing earlier. Today, mine is/was 9.
The Alex Gonzalez selected is not Seabass, the Boston shortstop. He's one of the lesser known parts of the Nomar/Orlando Cabrera/Eye Chart deal, which is how I nailed him.
He didn't win 20 with the Angels.
That was the one that tripped me up today.
I considered and stupidly dismissed the most obvious answer because for some reason I thought Ryan never won 20. Of course he did.
So it seems like the single season things have to have happened with the team in question but the career numbers, he just has to have suited up for them?He didn't win 20 with the Angels.

boo.
For some reason, I ignored the fact that the Nats used to be the Expos and missed the Cubs combo
Some of these percentages surprised me.
Ryan was the only I was confident enough to say he won 20 for the Angels. Very surprised that many people remembered Piazza played for the Marlins for a week. Toughest one for me was the Angels/Marlins.
Edit: My rarity score was something like 108

Chuck Finley never won 20 games?
And somehow I knew who drafted Dontrelle, but I guess he never played there

this is a game on the internet that i play that i would like you to make for me through chat. what else information do you need? HOW TO PLAY Select a player for each cell that matches the criteria for that cell's row and column For a player to be considered valid for a team, he must've played at least one game for that team at the MLB level If a cell is for a team and an award, the player you select must have won that award while on that team If a cell is for a team and a season stat, the player you select must have recorded that stat while on that team If you select a player for a cell with a rate stat (AVG, ERA, etc.), that player must've accumulated that stat in a completed season A player cannot be used twice You have 9 guesses to fill out the grid Each guess, whether correct or incorrect, counts as a guess You can guess active or inactive MLB players There is a new grid every day
Thank you for providing the instructions on how to play the game. To create the game grid for you, I would need the following information:
each cell between the 3x3 grid is a player. the first two columns are teams and the 3rd column is a notable career achievement. the first two rows are teams and the third row is a notable career achievement. the list of teams is all active major league teams as to whenever you can get data to. what else do you need
Thank you for the additional information. Based on the details provided, I understand that the game grid will consist of a 3x3 grid with teams in the first two columns, a notable career achievement in the third column, and the first two rows representing teams while the third row represents notable career achievements. The list of teams will include all active Major League Baseball (MLB) teams.
To proceed with creating the game grid, I would need the following information:
pick the top 50 most notable achievements that a major league ballplayer could get. for example, 300 wins, 500 home runs, mvp, cy young, rookie of the year, etc
Certainly! Here is a list of 50 notable career achievements that a Major League Baseball player could attain:
that is perfect but only use the top 40. can you generate a grid for me
Certainly! Here is a 3x3 game grid with active MLB teams in the first two columns, notable career achievements in the third column, and the first two rows representing teams while the third row represents notable career achievements:

are there players that you can confirm fit into each cell?
Apologies for the confusion, but as an AI language model, I don't have real-time access to player data or the ability to confirm specific players fitting into each cell. I can provide general guidance and information based on historical player achievements and team affiliations, but I cannot confirm specific players for the given cells.
To fill in the grid with actual players, you would need to consult reliable sources such as MLB statistics, team rosters, and award databases to find players who have achieved the specified career milestones or received the mentioned awards while playing for the corresponding teams.
Please note that player performance and team affiliations may change over time, so it's essential to refer to up-to-date sources for accurate information on players and their achievements.
i only want to use historical data that you have access to
Apologies for the misunderstanding. Since I have access to historical data, I can provide some examples of players who fit into each cell based on their achievements and team affiliations in the past. Here's a filled-in game grid using historical data:

The brain is funny. You name any random player from the 90’s and 2000’s and I can rattle off a list of the teams they played for. Even obscure, half season stops.
But if you just want me to name a player who played for the Mets in the 90’s? Give me an hour and I have like three names. Add in another team and it’s even worse.

The Angels 20-game winner is pretty hard. Only 7 Angels have ever won 20 games in a year, and the most ever is 22 games -- 8 total seasons.
Only 2 of those guys pitched in this century.
It's made me wonder, what team has the least amount of 20 game winners in the integration era?
The Nats/Expos have 3.
Rays have 2.
Mariners have 2 pitchers (3 seasons).
Rangers have 3.
Marlins have 1.
Rockies have zero, so that's your answer, fishbulb.

It's kind of a last century stat, though. It wasn't that hard for me. You gotta be old.
