Yes, Evans is the other. He's also one of the ones who had 10 WAR with each team. He is very underrated - was also a top defensive third baseman in his prime.
-
I got some leads from AI and then I worked with that.
-
Rusty Staub is correct. He is likely the only one to do it with four teams.
-
Those players only did it for two teams.
-
So far, the Dodgers have only won two World Series this century, so it's a little early to say they are automatic World Champions every year. They have a loooooong way to go before they are like the Yankees.
-
There are at least 11 including Granderson. Three of them included the Tigers as franchises. One of them did it with four teams including the Tigers. Four of them had 10+ WAR with each franchise.
-
If they pass the Golden At Bat rule, I will most likely stop watching games. I'll just follow the stats and play fantasy baseball.
-
He'll need to do something about the beard. That's a reliever beard, not a manager beard.

Fun factoid: Lifetime WAR: Williams 49.6 Granderson 47.5
-
yes, it's Bernie. Randy Smith insisted that he had agreed to a deal with the Yankees for Bernie Williams on expansion draft day only to have the Yankees pull out at the last minute. Nobody believed him.
-
How about Williams for Mike Drumright and Roberto Duran. Or are we giving up too much?
-
It's going to feel so good when the Tigers beat them in the World Series in 2028.
-
You can't compare. If you put the stars of the 60s in a time machine and dropped them in a game today, they probably would not do well. If they were playing today though, they would have had the same training, had the benefit of the same technology and analytics, etc and they would be stars.
-
Then they can trade him for Torres.
-
I would say that the cost and interest are highly connected.
-
Boston doesn't have a reputatilon of not developing hitters though.
-
Although the Tigers of that period had a reputation of being cheap prior to collusion, collusion is another c word which fits and it affected the Tigers more than other teams.
-
OK, I thought you meant he performed the same way this year as Cobb/Maeda did when they were with the Tigers. I would have liked to have Verlander down the stretch, but he is not on my wish list for the future.
-
I don't know if I'd want him back in Detroit at his age, but he was a useful pitcher this year, especially down the stretch. He was not like Maeda and Cobb.
-
yes, cheap is a better word.
-
I was more excited about the future in the 80s, but it wasn't as good as it should have been. Now, that was a front office that was too cautious. I don't think you can compare numbers of playoff appearances in the 2000s to the 1980s or 1960s or 1930s or 1900s
-
I am not really being cynical or negative. I mostly like Harris, but I think he is very cautious. My post was an exaggeration in jest.
-
I really doubt this is true. They know approximately how much he is worth and they aren't going to off him 250 million less than that.
-
I never like to make assumptions about injured pitchers. I hope Olson has a strong healthy season, but I am not penciling him for 30 games or anything close to that. They need to acquire another legitimate MLB starter even if Flaherty stays.
-
I don't think he really is.
