I got 147. Some of the Late 90s/Early 00s are really tough to get. Some real no-namers the Jays played at certain points.

I got 184. I had totally forgotten about Blue Jay stalwarts like Orlando Merced and Esteban Loaiza.

My score is embarrassing I'm not even gonna reveal it. I suppose it's a small price to pay for my youth.

i got 160, I have to admit for some of them I started just typing in common last names. I got some random ones as I watched during the really low times (i.e. Orlando Merced, Homer Bush, The beast that is Chris Woodward, and Benito Santiago), but I missed a lot of more recent ones like Troy Glaus, and I didn't know how to spell Frankie Cat's last name.

For the life of me I don't remember who Erik Hanson is.

my score is disappoint. missed some easy lay-ups palacio-style. like shannon stewart, jack morris, and troy glaus. i am quite ashamed to call myself a true jays fan with such a despicable score.

I'm not embarrassed to tell you my score. 110. Pretty pathetic. I know.

Missed some names i should have had.

Thanks EvilRyu. Fun quiz!
