I’ll go Edgar and Frank Thomas.

Edgar is 1....687 minor league hits and stuck in minors hitting .340 and .350 and Mariners were awful.

Boggs seems like a great guess if he was 25 when he came up.

 

Boggs 724 is the other answer...good job

That one I knew being a big Griffey fan. Had a dog growing up named Griffey and we got him when he still played for Seattle. His trade to Cincinnati was like a million Christmas mornings for me. Unfortunately it didn't work out as well as we all would've hoped.

Same here man. The greatest player in the game and an electric player coming to play in his hometown Cincy .....ended up too good to be true or just a big bad luck jinx of injuries

Morgan is around 2500. He's probably close to the bottom.

Not sure why I thought Mathews had 3000 initially.

Of course, 5,200 combined hits means one of them was a more average type guy. Wade Boggs? He came up at 25 I think. Which is nuts he got to 3,000 starting so late and missing parts of 2 seasons.

You’re good too buddy. I’ll start from my last post each time. Thought you might have been napping but I guess it was I who was napping.

Boggs was up at 24....walked a ton too.Very impressive he got to 3000, sounded like he could’ve pushed towards 3500 had not been in minors for so long.
