    no

    I know. But my punchline for that wasn’t as good.

    Work with me here…

    Does Pedro have a kid we can deal this one for?

    He's a shortstop in the Tigers' org, currently batting .109... but he's only 20. I heard Bloom offered Detroit DeShields, Downs, Davis and Robles for Miggy's contract and young Pedro. BTV calls it a slight overpay, but the key to the trade is Junior.

    I'm today years old when I learned Preston Wilson was Mookie Wilson's son. Same for Ke'Bryan and Charlie Hayes.

    IDK how I feel about that one. I didn't look into Ducky much and Dick was a decent player (record holder too, see below). I think I just excluded because it was an uncle/nephew gimmick rather than father/son or brother/brother. Their lineage was a little more indirect.

    He shares the record for most seasons having at least 400 at bats and fewer than 100 hits, having done it four times.

    So I guess you’re also out on Shumpert/Betts?

    What Storm and Glenn Davis?

    I do think leaving out the Drews is a glaring omission…

    Actually, Stephen and JD should be added. I'll put them on there.
