- RefGuess is back! In this season, a select few Jomboy Media office members compete to gain points by guessing players based only on their Baseball Reference stat page. Each one guessed correctly is worth one point. If the player guesses all three correctly they advance to the trivia round. Guessing the trivia question correctly is worth two points for a grand total of five possible points per episode. The most points at the end of the season wins bragging rights and a The RefGuess Trophy.

It's wild that Larry Walker never, in a 17 year career, had an OPS+ under 110. Literally no bad years. No average years. Just good-to-great hitting 17 years in a row.
Roids also
Only hof of 2025
"Bad at everything? What do you mean ? Look at his.....
His um.......
Career hits!"
Never change, McFly
Bailey assuming it would be rod barajas is hilarious
We all knew that deep down, we had a Rod in us ready to make an appearance.
That '97 Larry Walker season is insane...
Larry Walker was an absolute beast
Of course Bailey would correctly blindly guess my uncle Rod Barajas!
tell your uncle that we love him
Tell him we all know he could throw
🔥
Almost like he saw a video about rod
@@passdagabagoul4369 He made the video. Bailey is FoolishBaseball. He makes Baseball Bits.
Bailey on JM Baseball? This went straight to the top of the queue
You should check out his videos with Jake on Jake's channel!
Might need to put this in my hidden folder if you know what I mean
@@Louiegreanias
Going into hard, I was just like "Alright, Tim LoCastro, Jeff Mathis or Rod Barajas, which one is it gonna be?" and got a big smile at Barajas
"When is the Expos vid coming out, Jolly?" It comes out after Jolly watches the Triumph & Tragedy video, just to make sure he doesn't simply duplicate it because it's a masterpiece.
Lol @ Jolly being wrong about what the Rod Barajas video is about, it just focused on his 2012 season and why even though he had one of the worst seasons ever in terms of throwing runners out, it actually wasn't his fault at all
I was gonna say it was because all those Pirates pitchers took 2 hours to deliver to the plate
That Rod Barajas video was legendary
I would NOT have been able to guess Rod Barajas if the edit didn't include Bailey blind guessing him and putting his name in my head but as soon as I saw the page I knew it was him.
Hey! If you can do players who played for Cardinals-Giants (since they play at Rickwood Field next week), that'll be great!
They film videos like weeks in advance
Jimmy was locked in this episode!
Really funny I remember Rod Barajas as a Phillies catcher and he was only there half a season lol
I wonder if Jake was thinking of Max Fried, he pinch ran in Miami in I think 2019 and scored from first on a double, he was MOVING
Nah, I don’t think so. There used to be a pitcher in the late 2000s maybe early 2010s that used to be used as a pinch runner. Hes right on the tip of my tongue dang it!
Rod Barajas goes nuts
I love these videos so much, but i gotta call this out: you said Barajas BEFORE you showed his ref page. I like to play along with you guys and pause the video to see if I can get the answer, and you blew that one for me before I got a chance to try :(
Now that I got that off my chest...thanks for all the quality work you guys do. I look forward to this show every week.
Putting Hal Smith as the hard one would have been hilarious
It would be great to see a hall-of-famer edition of this or one of players before 1950
Although also most of those guys barely moved teams, so that would be pretty different from the usual
@@ferdinandpenguin some did though and you definitely could use them, plus maybe they could throw in a former Negro League player
Simmons was actually able to play his position, so he is better than Jeter.
Easiest 5 points ever. Thank god I watch Bailey’s second channel all the time
Got the first immediately, had no idea who the second was, knew which video was the third but couldn’t remember the name, but then I was so back for baseball’s speedrunner.
Absolutely nailed the Trivia question instantly. (More due to Jimmy vs Jake Paper Football and Jimmy's "BUEHRLE" he'd yell when taking a shot without planning)
I know Ross Stripling pinch ran for the Dodgers early in his career, idk when the last time he pinch ran was, but he definitely did some early on.
Damn my blind guess for Hard was Jeff Mathis. But Jeff Mathis was the first Foolish Baseball video I saw, and Rod Barajas was the video where my username was featured for being a new Patron. Anyways good thing I've seen every Foolish Baseball video because the trivia question was super easy.
Still hoping for a 90s All-Stars round.
Simmons disrespect is ridiculous. Gold glove contender every year and NEVER STRUCK OUT MORE THAN 67 times. That’s impressive itself
I knew Rod Barajas but I'm a Dbacks fan.
Poor Shelfy getting bodied on the daily.
Huge Jm baseball, foolish baseball/bailey fan, and mark buehrle is my favorite player of all time. The universe blessed me today
I think this is the first RefGuess where I knew every one right away. And I've never watched FoolishBaseball.
Unreal that Guy #1 hit .379!! with 37 HR and 115 RBI and ended up as MVP-10 that year.
If he did it for a full season he probably would've won, but he played 127 games of the season, so as far as total value he only played 4 of every 5 games. But yes, he hit amazingly well.
Late 90s baseball was a wild time
mark buerhle was so cool. as a kid i loved those white sox teams, i look at them a lot more fondly now
Joez, my immediate guess was also
John Jaso but this guy didn’t have enough Tampa time, but I had no other guesses
Rod Barajas was the Jays Catcher when I started watching baseball forgot he was only there those 2 years
Respect future HOFer Mark Buehrle
Foolish is so goated
Was the Barajas video the one where his speed at throwing to second base was made to look worse than it was because the pitchers took too long to deliver the pitch?
Com'on guys that's Larry Walkerrrrr!!!!
this has to be the nerdiest baseball series
I went to a Mark Buehrle and Carl Pavano game between the twins and white sox that was sub 2 hours and they both threw complete games.
mark buehrle video is one of the GOATs
Bailey and Jolly, we would be best friends irl haha I swear
3/3 and the bonus. Let’s go.
We love Bailey
I love this collab!
Letting Jimmy pinch hit for a grand slam is wild.
im still waiting for Joey Wendle to be in one of these
Corner OF for STL and it wasn't Chris Duncan or Juan Encarnacion? Savagery.
You should have given everyone else people that Foolish did videos on, but give Foolish players that jolly did videos on, and just watch him be confused about when he did a video on like david wright
I convinced myself medium had more gold gloves than he has and was racking my brain for Braves, Angels SS that's NOT *name here* before finally deciding it was
Jason marquis used to pinch run
2 weeks in a row of spoiling an answer 😕
Was Clay Buchholz the pinch-running pitcher Jake was trying to think of?
I believe Andrelton Simmons has retired as of this past winter
This was really easy, which makes me sad. Also, as a Phillies fan, I also got hard because he was a Phillie in 07 and I have his card.
Also also, I would've loved it if you made hard Bobby Wallace, and made really hard Hal Smith.
Was jake talking about lorenzen for the pitcher that was fast?
BBD kinda looks like the answer to the bonus round.
Was thinking Damien Miller
Bailey sniping it is hilarious
giving jimmy free points. he deserves it.
Shout out Rod Barajas, has the same birthday as me
Is it weird for me to say I got all the questions right except for Larry Walker…
Would love if you could get Jon Bois on
Has Matt Stairs made a refguess appearance yet??
I got all of the answers instantly 😂
Spoiler
I really want buehrle to be medium, but then got to the trivia and i was like ah there it is
Hard should've been Old Hoss Radborn
Joez, we know that you know that it's Larry Walker...stop it.
Yo, those last few seasons of Simba's not good, but have people given up on him too soon? Look at what Profar's doing right now
Mark Buerle
How tf did Larry Walker finish 1.168 ops with a GG and finish 10th in mvp voting???
Why is Jake so salty that Simmons was a better defender than Jeter? That's not an opinion, it's a fact.
Statistically, Jeter was the worst defender at his position pretty consistently, so that isn't hard too do. Simmons was legitimately good at his position. He made Jeter look like a little leaguer.
Because people didn't usually just say he was a better defender, but a better player. And even at his best Simmons was not on Jeter's level offensively. Was also pretty close to the same time people were saying Kimbrel was the new Mo, which was similarly nonsense.
@@SlickTrix33 The Kimbrel one made more sense. He was as good as Mo ever was in his first 5 seasons in Atlanta.
Defender for sure but way worse player, Simmons was massively overrated/hyped at the time. Dude had like 1 year where he would of been my first choice at SS, I’d rather have a slightly above average defender and bat than just the best defender that had 3/11 years with an ops atleast of 100 and all 3 were barely over.
Love the collab ❤
I don’t think anybody thought Simba was better than Jeter
joez i love you my man but how do you not get larry walker 😭😭
What is BBD’s hat? I need that
mike Leake would pinch run
Foolish filling in for Jomboy doesn’t seem fair? Or am I wrong
I dont think Jolly watched the Rod Barajas video
You should a video with only under 5 10 players
I got the first two very quickly.
Wait did Max really try to call out other people who got stuffed in their locker in school?
I feel like the super nerds are the ones who say rolen shouldn't be in the HOF
Nah Rolen was definitely supported by the sabermetric crowd. I remember a lot of oldheads complaining that Rolen lowered the bar (dumb take since he’s pretty clearly a HOFer)
i'm a simple girl
i see foolish bailey in a video
i goon
the blind guesses just ruin it, that is back to back weeks the blind guess ruined one of them for me.. Not that i would have prolly gotten that one anyways
no old haus radbourne????
Day 4 of asking for an ERA+ or OPS+ draft
Free points for Jimmy.... 🙄
Max is the type of nerd who tries to act like he’s not a nerd but he is a nerd. Max just lean in to your role man. You’re a nerd, be a nerd. Stop using phrases like “light work”
I guess im a nerd but this video was way too easy
sponge bob ftw
Everyone had a better defense than jeter
When Max gonna get kicked off the show
get giraffeneckmarc on next
Am I the only one that wishes Bailey would join the JomBoy media crew???
I think it would be awesome.
Joez faking not knowing answers back at it again
No Tim locastro is a sin
Why do men under 5'10" need a fashion line? how about us tall folks who are always neglected?
Big & Tall has been around forever
Tall folks don't need fashion as much because they are naturally advantaged in basically every aspect of everyday life
Please stop spoiling hard.
I hate to admit I enjoy when max loses
