I got a 53, with some of the same guesses as yours. (Even though my numbers add up to only 52. I guess there's some rounding going on.)

NEGL/300AVG - Willie Mays 6
NEGL/10HR - Larry Doby 12
NEGL/10W - Don Newcombe 10
LAD/300AVG - Brett Butler 1
LAD/10HR - Duke Snider 3
LAD/10W - Fernando Valenzuela 8
BAL/300AVG - Eddie Murray 8
BAL/10HR - Brooks Robinson 2
BAL/10W - Pat Dobson 2

Newcombe could qualify in four categories: .300 BA and 10 wins for both Dodgers and Negro Lg,, and then doesn't miss 10 HRs by much which would slot him in twice more (topped out at 7 for one season just 117 ABs)

The categories that tend to give me the most trouble (other than Tampa Bay Rays) are 30 saves, first-round draft pick, and only one team.

Pretty bad rarity score but at least I was able to come up with all six of the two team overlaps. That'd be a long shot most days.

I whiffed on the entire middle row. I had Howard Johnson as a Rockie third baseman and Walt Weiss at second base. Both were wrong.

For the bottom row I went Miguel Castro - Gary Carter - and then dragged the name Brad Emaus from out of the cob webs (0.3% and not even a picture)

I liked this one - a pleasant smattering of mets including one of my favourite rare ones in Desi Relaford - but wish I'd saved him for the Rockies as I'm sure he'd have done a damn sight better for me then Vinny Castilla!

It was kind of fun today. I blew it by forgetting the degree to which Buzz Capra sucked except for the year he won the ERA title with Atlanta.

I went real low on the Pirates: Lloyd Waner (I under-cut FMan on Waners) - Brian Giles - Roy Face (all 1%'ers)
and real low on Mets: Duke Snider - Lance Johnson - Tug (2.0, 0.3, 0.8)
But not so low on the top line: Josh Gibson, Roy Campanella, Satchel Paige (13%, 12%, 77%)

I'm surprised at how few White Sox pitchers had 200 strikeouts in a season. That was the only category I missed today. (Lamar Hoyt was incorrect.)
