    Dude, i tried this the first guess I had was Jorge Polanco and it gave me age range from 26- 30 and throws right. Thats it. And I guessed Kris Bryant and got it!!!
    Two tries!!

    • @trublaze

      I guessed like 4 lefties before finding a righty

  • @Maugrin9
    @Maugrin9 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    For today's, I went: Marco Gonzalez (got me US, 30 years old, and most likely a R/R), Aaron Judge (narrowed down to NL West, partial outfielder), then Kris Bryant. I had a similar thought process and initially thought of Chris Taylor, but I wasn't sure about the age. I was fortunate that when I guessed Judge, I thought "partial outfielder" and not just, "outfielder", because I wouldn't have thought of Bryant if my mind was on primary outfielders.
    This was pretty fun! I'm glad I was introduced to this.

    I got Greinke in one guess because I always use him first :)
    He’s my favourite player so I decided I’d always guess him first so I’d get him in one guess if he ever was the pick.

  • @bobbybagwell5281
    @bobbybagwell5281 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Jacob deGrom is the best opening guess because he bats L and throws R, so you can nail down the handedness and whether or not he’s starting pitcher on the first guess.

  • @daleftuprightatsoldierfield
    @daleftuprightatsoldierfield 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I had the same thought of "start with someone obscure today" so I started with Max Schrock. Took me 7 guesses to get to KB as well, but I guessed Cron and McMahon before KB. I also guessed a Dodger, and then a Giant before making it to the Rox.

    Stopped the video 1 minute in to try this out. Got it in 3, although there were some really good hints. Can't wait to add this to my daily lineup after I do the wordle of the day.
    Went Matt Olson, then Chris Taylor (great minds think alike), and then went Bryant after I saw 1st base and CF were both yellow and it was an NL West player.

    position eligibility isnt a thing for the player you’re guessing bailey! i had the same issue but jeremy thankfully explained that it only turns yellow if the mystery player has played 10 games at the position. for example: i missed the keston hiura one bc i guessed austin riley, and ruled out first base bc it was gray

    @warhawk3972 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love the idea of this as a series!
    One idea I had: In wordle, theres often strategies for the best starting word or starting words, and there's some basic math and programming involved. Could you use some of that math and derive the best starting player or starting 2 players that give you the most information? Could definitely see this being a collab with a math/science/coding TH-camr because baseball strikes me as a sport that you could program out all of the data in WARdle with python or something.

    • @abridge2
      @abridge2 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think someone split L/R bats throws would be best, if they're a corner outfielder that would be best since that seems to be the go-to position to just throw somebody to make room, and since outfielders are more likely to move around you get a higher chance of a yellow in position

    Funny enough Giolito is my favorite player so he has been my go-to first guess. Today I did Giolito -> Alec Bohm -> Justin Turner -> Kris Bryant. Guessing a 3rd baseman on my 2nd try made it a lot easier, but after that it was a crapshoot between turner, longo, and bryant

  • @n8_n
