Dansby Swanson to Brandon Crawford

On Wednesday, October 7, 2026, everyone playing the MLB Today's Linkster got the same two players: get from Dansby Swanson to Brandon Crawford in as few links as possible. Par was 2, counted through teams, but any shared college or team counted as a move.

The two players

  • Dansby Swanson (SS, 2016–2025) Teams: Atlanta Braves and Chicago Cubs.
  • Brandon Crawford (SS, 2016–2024) College: UCLA. Teams: San Francisco Giants and St. Louis Cardinals.

Seasons 2016–2025. Teams only count from seasons in that range.
