I think it would be a nice, and probably an inexpensive, addition to have local heroes added. Like if you’re a Marlins fan, Jeff Conine or Livan Hernandez, for example, would be additions that the majority of the fan base doesn’t get excited for but a Marlins fan would appreciate their inclusion.

Every franchise has guys that may have been under appreciated by the masses but will forever live on in the hearts of the diehards.

As a Blue Jays fan, I’d love a Vernon Wells card or Mark Eichhorn or Duane Ward or the return of Dave Stieb but this time with the actual stud of a card of which he deserves, but outside of Blue Jays fans’, no one is excited for these additions.

Feel free to add any franchise specific additions you’d like to see for your favourite team

I believe that once you accumulate enough progress to reach stage 2 of the program you can no longer complete tasks from stage 1. I think stage 2 is unlocked at 85 or 90 so you probably crossed that threshold midway through the Altuve stat mission. I can’t verify though because I’m a Switch user…

You’re doing the Lord’s work here @Blind_Bleeder. Much appreciated!

@Dolenz_PSN said in Carlos Rodon 78?:

That is one of the bigger drops though.

I wonder who has had the biggest drop? Rodon is down 10. Goldschmidt is down 9. There has to be someone who has fallen harder though right?

Not sure if it’s the largest drop, but Alek Manoah dropped from an 83 at launch to a 67 now

I’ve got one no one will get. Who was the first IF to join the 30/30 club? Hint: he’s friggin awesome

Hint this IF made the club three times. He and a teammate also were the first and only to ever be in the club as teammates in the same season

Howard Johnson it is! The teammate was definitely Straw. I loved watching HoJo at the plate back in the day! Switch hitter and threat at the dish and on the base paths. He struck out what was considered a lot at the time but in today’s game you wouldn’t even bat an eye about those strikeout numbers

Oof this is a lot tougher than I thought it was going to be. I know Joe Carter and Howard Johnson both had 30/30 seasons in ‘87. Johnson played 3B for sure, and I think Carter might’ve played 1B that season more than the outfield. Am I close??

The only guy I can think of that played in 4 decades with a great bat and no wheels is Ted Williams. I think he started in 1939 and finished in 1960. Maybe it was Stan Musial but I don't think he started until the 40's

You are correct! Ted Williams successfully stole bases in the ‘30s, ‘40s, ‘50s, and even in 1960. He was a career 24/41 stealing bases which means his career OBP of 0.482 is nearly as high as his successful stolen base rate of 0.585

You’ve got the first 3 correct! The 4th player was definitely known more for his bat. In fact, he only stole 24 bases in his career yet he certainly didn’t struggle getting on base

Without looking I would guess George Brett.

Great guess but George played from ‘73 to ‘93 so he was only able to accomplish the feat in 3 decades

Your question is hard and only three come to mind who played that long.

Rickey Henderson
Tim Raines
Omar Visquel
Ty Cobb or Honus Wagner?????

Without looking it up, who gave up Roger Maris' 61st HR at Yankee Stadium in 1961?

Tracy Stallard!!

Only four players have successfully stolen a base in 4 different decades. Can you name the players?
