There you go. Ho Jo.....wasn’t a big name very long but for 3-4 years he was a big time player. Didn’t do much before or after.

Hence the question!

It was definitely a good question.
Question #158
This player has scored more runs than any other player in MLB history that is not in the HOF and is eligible AND no steroid association.
I remember looking this up like a week ago.
Is it Damon?

1st in runs, 2nd in hits
1669 and 2769
Hell of a career and not a breath of HOF thought

I was actually reading articles about him not being in last week, too. Apparently, he's pretty salty about it.
Question #159:
This non-HOF outfielder is the only MLB player since 1936 to have at least three at-bats in over 300 straight games.
He spent 16 of his 17 seasons in southern California and finished top-5 in ROY and MVP voting once each. Was an absolute double machine for a few years, posting 36+ doubles in seven straight seasons.
Question #160
3 of these 6 are above 2000 career hits and 3 are below.....put them in their two groups
Jim Edmonds, Todd Zeile, Jason Giambi, Orlando Cabrera, Dusty Baker, Fred Lynn

That's him.
I was shocked to find out that part about consecutive games with at least three at-bats.

Should’ve gotten more consideration. But just not enough power. Which can be offset if you play C, CF, 2B or SS at an all-time level. But he didn’t, and was probably a net negative in the field.

Per BR, his lifetime dWAR is indeed -2.0.

There you go
Question #161:
In the last 50 years, there have only been three players to pull off a streak of 60+ games reaching base on either a hit, walk, or HBP.
Two of them are not in the Hall: Orlando Cabrera (63 games) and Mark McGwire (61).
Who is the lone HOF slugger to join them?
