I took it as they did, but could be wrong. It made me a little uneasy about my Rangers pick if it does have to be
I assumed at first that they did but a few days ago Max Sherzer fit for the dodgers and for a stat he certainly did not achieve with LA. (Although that was a career stat, not a single season stat)
So the Sherzer stat was 3000 career strikeouts. Actually he did get to that number while pitching for the dodgers but obviously most of those strikeouts came while pitching for other teams.

I also got 6/9, and on a weird note, all 6 of my correct answers were the most popular answers for those squares.

9/9 heck yeah. Got my first 4 right away, but all but one of the Twins answers took me awhile. There were some really obvious ones I didn’t think about at all though.
