He's not on my list of 6 but happy to make it 7.

I didn't invent this one just passing it along, I'll take a look, happy to add the Hebrew Hammer

Edit: Just looked, he definitely is on the list, so we have 4 need 3 more

Wasn’t blaming you, per se, just the nature of the general question. One of the reasons I am not a huge Rate Stat guy when looking at careers. And making an exception for Greenberg actually bastardizes the answer set, because at what point do you not “count” a season?

Maybe the better question would be “who has averaged 100 RBI per 162 (Or 150 or whatever)?”

sorry. Not trying to be a pisser. But I am a data guy by trade/training and that kind of fuzziness I avoid like the plague professionally, and I can’t avoid it in my personal life…

All good points. But I am calling it, Greenberg is in, 3 more LOL

One ab 3 years before his actual career shouldn’t derail him from it. If there are other similar examples we can add them too but let’s be honest there won’t be

Wow I just checked and Manny would have got there if he didn't sign with Tampa for that last season.

Need more hints?
