I think the official number for Gibson is like 139. Like I said before, I’ve heard MLB players at the time praise Gibson and he is in the HOF. No need to do this. I’ve seen ppl on FB calling everyone racist for not praising this move. Forgive me for questioning the motives of MLB. I collect baseball cards as well and I know they are coming out with NL inserts. Makes me question the timing even more
It’s only acceptable if they double down and add ALL leagues in. Then I can finally be put down in the record books for my 6 home runs I hit as a 12 year old in summer league
That baseball Reddit is so fucking woke I’m honestly shocked. I got 20 downvotes and banned from the sub because I said the Braves chop was perfectly fine and it’s silly to try and change it
I was pleasantly surprised as well how many redditors declared this stat merger lunacy as well (and didn't get downvoted to oblivion).
I don't recall that being an acceptable position a few years back when Baseball Reference started merging stats and posting "The Negro Leagues ARE Major League" agitprop everywhere on banners.

Reddit is fully infiltrated now and it hasn't been good for over a decade. It's just bots and NPCs all the way down now.
