All Things Immaculate Grid-related (MLB, NBA, NFL)

I was able to use an all-Cuban/former Twins on the bottom line of the grid today which reeled in two new unique players: Julio Becquer, Tony O, and Sandy Valdespino. Reading the Twins Almanac awhile back, I tucked in the recesses of my mind the formerly strong Cuban connection for the Senators/Twins and it paid off today.

My hack on the "Players Born Outside the 50 US States" is to type in Luis, Jorge or Juan and hope it leads me to someone who fits the other category and is a New Player.

It's worked recently for example on jogging my memory on Rivas, Orta & Beniquez.

Be careful-I was sure Bobby Castillo was a shoo-in for outside the US and turns out he was an L.A. born native.

Btw, Brooks Lee (only 1 team/played 3rd base) brought me to 1390 players today. I think I might be leaning on current Twins (or real recent) to push me to 1400.

Great minds on Brooks Lee, I used him on the same square, also a Newbie.

I must have used him before the Login option, because I distinctly remember entering Lee on the same Grid with his namesake, Brooks Robinson.
