None of those guys. Let me give you a hint. He played his best in Philladelphia and was involved in a trade for a hall of famer.

It's gotta be Dave Hollins then. I never would have guessed it but he was in the other thread with David Ortiz.

Edit: Actually I would have eventually guessed it but I got mixed up and thought he was already guessed. But if for some reason it wasn't him and he was just coincidentally traded for a hall of famer I'll go with Chris James.

That is the guy. He played 1 career game as SS, had one chance and booted it.
Chris James retired after the 1995 season, for the record.

So I just looked up my guess, Ventura. He only played one game at short, but he had two errors. Lol

And it was in 94.

Here is another one. What pitcher led the league in strikeouts, but didn't lead his team that season.
Hint, it was the only year he led a league in strikeouts and he is a Hall of Famer.

Randy Johnson?
It would have to be someone who was traded mid season, within the same League. I think Johnson’s only mid-season trades were Mon-Sea and Sea-Hou. Neither of those were inner-league, so I don’t see how they could qualify.

Maybe Seaver? Fingers was traded a shit-ton of times, but I don’t think he ever led the league in Ks…

I thought Johnson was traded to the Diamondbacks at some point. Speaking of the Diamondbacks, the Phillies traded Schilling mid season to Arizona for sure so he is a possibility.

Or Jim Kaat, or Bert Blyleven
Is one of those right? I just remembered hoop trivia 101-when it's kind of obscure, look at the team logo next to the name of the original person that asked the question.

I want it to be Jim Kaat. Cuz my sister was also a Hope College Flying Dutchmen.

But idk about him leading a league in Ks.
I can't believe he had time to go to college. He was in the major leagues for like 30 years. The stats on the back of his baseball card took up the whole thing.

Who has the most homeruns without a stolen base attempt? Hint -- he is an active player.

That's a tough one. It's hard to imagine anyone not at least having an attempt or two. I'm going to throw out a wild guess. It's a wild guess because he has been in the league forever and has a lot of home runs and also he might not be active. My guess is Nelson Cruz
