I need to think beyond players from the 80s and 90s.

My mind goes there immediately. My Astros answers for today were Bill Doran, Doug Drabek & Gerald Young!

8/9

Lots of HOFers today:

Joe Morgan, X, Frank Robinson
Gerrit Cole, Barry Bonds, Willie Stargell
Cesar Cedeno, Willie Mays, Rickey Henderson

I made it a little more complicated than it needed to be. Should have used the first answer for the one I missed, because I could think of additional answers for everything else, except for Joe Morganbeing the Giants/Reds answer today.

6/9. I wasted way too many guesses at 3000k for LA.

That one stumped me for awhile until I remembered a rental trade. I'm usually good on the bottom row and right column. It's the two-team players that give me trouble.
I love Texas Aggie sports, but I love Texas A&M more.

My buddy used Greg Maddux for the 3,000k Dodger...and that blew my mind for a second.

Same here.

9/9 yesterday, 5/9 today (including one wild guess right). Humbling.

How many names would be acceptable if the question was 3,000+ K Career and Astros? There are 19 members in the 3000K club; these are the ones who have played for the Astros:

1. Nolan Ryan
2. Randy Johnson
3. Roger Clemens
7. Don Sutton
12. Justin Verlander
17. Curt Schilling

Yeah, I had to think long and hard before getting the Dodger K frame. So many of the all-time Dodger greats lacked the longevity to get to 3000 K, so you had to think of cameo appearances. I almost went Maddux before remembering Don Sutton.

Strangely enough, I struggled to think of the LA/CWS crossover players, so I cheated and went with Mr. Freespace, Edwin Jackson.

Funny how the mind works. Or maybe just my mind. I never thought of Sutton for the 3000k box but he was first that came to mind for Dodgers/Brewers box. Immediately thought of Seaver for Sox HOF, Randy Johnson for Yankees 3000K and Pedro for the Dodgers. Sox/Dodgers box was my hardest.

Same. Kershaw and Greinke are very close but not there yet.

He had a short career. He retired at 30 due arthritic arm. He was almost in constant pain the last two seasons he pitched. .

He led the league in innings pitched, complete games, and ERA those years on the way to two Cy Youngs.

Yep and probably could have pitched effectively for at least a few more seasons. He stated he wanted full use of his body for his post-baseball life.

I couldn't think of anyone on the Kansas City - Cleveland. When I looked up who has, I don't blame myself for not remembering that they did.

6/9 today. I thought for sure Bret Saberhagen would have racked up a 200+ K season for KC. I also put Edwin Encarnacion in the wrong team combination square.

BTW, this things get weird with first names. I looked for Mike LaCoss the other day, but no dice. Found him as Michael LaCoss.

I should wait until I wake up to play this. So mad at myself for not coming up with a 500 HR/3000 hit guy.
