This batch includes our Negro Leagues Diamond Gems Series A - 173 cards from 8 legendary Negro League teams, featuring single-season cards from many superstars' primes! They can all be found on the official ATG 9 player spreadsheet.

That card for Nap Gulley is unique, one of a kind.
A "three true outcomes" pitcher!

I'll call Nap Gulley and raise you a Death Valley Scott for the new "worst" in the set.

I'll sometimes do a sort of pitchers by WHIP, and the default is "descending", so it gives me the worst pitchers available. If you do that from now on, four of the five "best" WHIP that pop up are $0.50 Negro League.

1945 Quincy Trouppe has weak power against lefties despite having a ballpark homer, and normal power against righties with no ballpark homers. Is this correct? Previously I knew only of pre-1901 players with weak power and ballpark homers on the same side.

edit: A few other guys also have the W/BPHR combo. Annoying because there's nowhere to download N/W ratings and now they're even slower to enter manually if we can no longer assume N power from BPHRs. Strat should just include the power ratings in the official spreadsheet going forward.

The pitcher x-chart only includes e-ratings up to 51 but several of the new NeL pitchers have ratings greater than 51. What do?
