Name the Player

[chicobo329]

Dwight Gooden and Darryl Strawberry are correct, but not Canseco. He was on the '00 team.

[Gantry]

Chili Davis?

[chicobo329]

Nope, Chili was on the '98 and '99 teams.

[Gantry]

Jimmy Key?  Clemens?

[chicobo329]

Clemens was on the later teams '99 and '00 for sure, but not '96. Jimmy Key is correct though!

There's two more NES RBIers actually, even though I initially asked for five. One should be fairly obvious (I'm surprised he wasn't guessed yet), the other is more obscure.

[BeefMaster]

I think that predated Clemens' time in NY - I think one of his Cys with the Blue Jays was in '97.

How about David Cone?

[BeefMaster]

Does it count as cheating that I'm pretty sure I just found one after looking at the NES rosters?  Or is it not cheating until you actually look up the '96 Yanks?  I will hold off on naming him until we get a ruling from the judges.

[chicobo329]

It's not cheating if you look up the RBI rosters, I mean, they're all right there on the dee-nee site X^D I guess it's cheating if you look at the '96 roster itself.

I have a handy roster on me to check, not just from my personal experience being a Yankees fan, but also from the '96 World Series poster I have in my room X^D

[chicobo329]

Oh and David Cone is correct, but he isn't in NES RBI X^D My question was specific to the first RBI game on the NES.

Checking my poster that I just mentioned, there's actually an even more obscure player out there, so feel free to guess the other two players left. I'm still stunned that a more obvious player hasn't been guessed yet.

You're supposed to have a roster - you're the guy who has to verify the answers.

Boggs was the "duh!" one I found, on the first RBI roster I looked at.

[BeefMaster]

Why the heck did I think Cone was in RBI?  My brain is worthless.

[chicobo329]

Boggs is right and I am relieved that he was finally guessed X^D

Since five have been guessed properly, I can safely say the obscure RBIer on the '96 team was Mike Aldrete.

[fathedX]

Mike Aldrete?  Holy crap, that was impossible.

[chicobo329]

Yeah I guess it was X^D But hey, now you know!

[Gantry]

How about David Cone?

What.... the....   fuck? 

[chicobo329]

Well maybe if my question was to name five players from RBI 2 or RBI 3, maybe that would be valid! X^D

[BDawk]

Jeter?

[chicobo329]

I lol'd X^D

[Attezz]

Didn't Aldrete pitch that year?

[BeefMaster]

How about David Cone?

What.... the....   fuck? 

Yeah, that was really weak... I think I either put him in Saberhagen's spot on AL or Ojeda's spot on the Mets.  I'm terrible.
