Putz with four 30+ save seasons, barely over 3 ERA, and 138 ERA+ across 12 seasons with only 1 AS game is kinda crazy

I thought for sure he had some Milwaukee years where he had JJ Hardy as a Battery mate.

Once again suggesting “unique first names” as a theme. Players who are the only MLB players with their first name. Adeiny Hechavarria, Lastings Milledge, Yasmani Grandal, etc.

Either his parents have a stuttering issue or the nurse got sticky keys while writing out the birth certificate

Chris Archer acquired for Mark DeRosa and traded for Matt Garza. Cubs should have kept him.

Traded by cleveland, who was also a part of the trade that sent JJ Putz to the Mets.

God damn Young has 40.2 oWar and -10.4 dWar

Joez was thinking of Heath Bell between the Dbacks years and being a Padre 😭😭

Chris Archer is why I know what “Thoracic Outlet Syndrome” is.

I've tried to figure out if a closer is JJ Putz so often in this game that when he actually came up, I was ready lmao

Jolly can’t usually sneak any Mariner past me, but definitely not that big fucker that’s gonna walk the world.

Man Hard really threw me for a loop for a while, but then I thought about the theme and it eventually came to me. Good job to BBD building on his third place lead. Here's hoping out he can catch Jake and Max. Still hoping for a round of 90s All-Stars

Let me tell you, the holiday has ruined me today. I saw the notification and my immediate thought was "Why are we releasing Ref Guess on a Saturday"?

The answer had to be DeRosa, like all the previous managers were old dudes

Shelfy saying “his name is initials” immediately threw JJ putz in my head

JJ Putz not in my book. My brain froze.

I love Ref Guess too, Ryan.

Jake knows Ball

3:30 Even more impressive getting all those strikeouts considering he was sick throughout.

I loved watching JJ Putz close games for the M’s. Got him instantly when his stats popped up

Putz is an underrated great closer. Hall of very good for sure. I think just a bit below Joe Nathan

Loved watching Mr Putz close out games in Seattle. Fantastic dude

3/3 and trivia. Back to back ASG stories for medium and hard players here. I always think of medium for his huge triple off Hoffman in the 9th in 2006. Hard is interesting for 2007: So the Tigers are facing his Mariners right after the ASG that year, so AL manager Jim Leyland makes a point to put Mr. Hard out there extra long by pitch count so Seattle is less likely to have him available immediately after.

Completely remembered Putz as a Padre too

Wow mark derosa love him saw him in the minors a bunch always followed his career underrated ultimate utility guy

Couldn’t get it out of my head that the Hard was Tom Wilhelmsen, even though it’s like 5 years too early.

First time I ever guessed a name that I was so sure it was wrong (jj putz) and it was right. Let’s gooooo!

Not going Willie bloomquist for hard is wild. JJ putz could have been an easy

I had JJ puts on my MLB 9innings team at one point

Happy 4th Lads!!

I got the hard right away but didn’t even get easy at all. Chris Archer is a name I have long forgot

That was surprisingly easy all around.

Somehow I got JJ Putz quicker than Chris Archer😂

Got Archer easily because I literally just watched that AL east strikeouts video yesterday

This is the best I’ve ever done all of them within 5 seconds the tism is strong

Medium and Hard were immediate for me. Only easy took some thinking somehow

MICHAEL YOUNG MENTIONED

How many of Archer's SOs were of Chris Davis?

Always hoping for a Phillies until I see the years 2012-2018, all a blur for me.

William Contreras jersey 🤝

I have totally erased putz from my memory lmao. Michael young could rake

Go Phils and go Shelfy ❤

Is Shelfy just a JM Baseball god?

So Jomboy just dropped his exhaustive look at Elly De La Cruz stealing video ... is that the excuse for why Ryan is taking his place on RefGuess. Jake has this in the bag though!

Baz isn’t a bad piece or meadows HUH?

The trivia answer is mark derosa

JJ! JJ!! JJ!!! JJ!!!!

I must be old to think medium should of been the easy by a mile

5 points again

Michael Young seems like more of an Easy level player, but maybe thats just me.

USA USA USA

Can Jake be stopped?

Glad to see Max could take some time off from fundraising for a genocide to play some RefGuess

BBD's full of sh¡t...Young was a good defender.

Dude totaled -10.4 dWAR… that’s pretty bad-slightly worse than Jeter (-9.4 dWAR). One year with dWAR above 1.0. Eight years of below average dWAR. That’s bad. For comparison’s sake, Jeter was just a better hitter and played for longer, which is what separates his 71.3 WAR from Young’s 24.7.

I can’t stand how baseball reference annotates positions. Just use letters for crying out loud!! P=Pitcher, C=Catcher, 1B=1st Base, etc. It’s not like there would be any duplicate letters doing it this way, so that’s no excuse. 😤😤😤
