This is always a top listen for me. Love the background on the places, the trivia and the fun stories! I think you guys handle the tragic ones with class as well. Thanks for all the work you put into it!
Throwing it back a bit, Rube Waddell began his career with the Louisville NL club before being sold to Pittsburgh. After his legendary stint with Connie Mack's Athletics, he went to the St. Louis Browns (now Orioles). He was worth 0.6 in the Pit-Bal spot.
@OrdinaryEffort I'm sure I'll have some comments on a future grid that is primarily old clubs where 19th century players come into play. For example, a Phi-Pit block should be filled with Phenomenal Smith or Billy Sunday, the famous evangelist.
Props to @1998ToppsPodcast as they always have to remind me it was Al Pedrique who signed Jose Altuve and not Fred Manrique. We'll forget tomorrow, but great job all around. Also, nice job not using Bobby Bo who played for 66% of the teams

Couldn't agree more, Matt and David do an incredible job
It was great to join you for this episode! Thanks for having us on!
This was an absolute blast, you guys are awesome! We'll have to run it back sometime.

This is a fantastic shoutout 🙌 those franchise relocations/name changes make for some really sneaky grid pulls. Love this!
