It's the offseason and I'm bored. Only big signing so far has been Corbin.

So let's have some fun.

Ray Pepper has the least amount of career RBIs for a player with at least 100 in one season.

Pepper drove in 101 in 1934 for the St. Louis Browns but only managed 69 (nice) more RBIs in his 5 year career.
Who had the lowest seasonal BA in a season in which he had 100 or more RBI?

I don't know if he is the worst of all time and once again I don't remember the exact number but I know that Tony Armas sure jumped out of my baseball cards and my sticker book in 1983! When you lead the league you are supposed to get your own sticker and I remembered Armas because Jim Rice and Cecil Cooper had a split RBI sticker that year and I don't think that Armas even got a sticker :wink:

It's Armas. I think he hit .218. The way things are going in MLB now days, I gotta believe that that dubious 'record' will fall in the next few years

That's gotta be Tommy Herr, no? If he had double digits then it's probably someone from a long time ago but these are my prime baseball card years hahaha

Yeah, I think so. I don't know it for a fact but I can't think of anyone since. Gwynn or Carew could have done but never actually did do it. I think Willie McGee came pretty close.

I had to cheat. I never would have gotten that.

Someone who is the "right" age will get it I think but the guy who is next on the list is the easier guess.

He never once had a lifetime ERA above 2.80 on any of those pitches. He finished his career with a 2.75 ERA
