Nagomi Mcdaniel is a lineup player for the Baltimore Crabs. Mcdaniel has been with the team since the Season 6 Elections, replacing Holden Stanton.

Mcdaniel is the player who has experienced the most trades, at five: from the Hades Tigers to the Hawaii Fridays due to a rare Mystery Blessing, then to the Breckenridge Jazz Hands and Baltimore Crabs in a single round of Season 3 blessings, next to the Jazz Hands in the Season 5 blessings, and finally back to the Crabs in the Season 6 blessings.

As of Season 6, Nagomi Mcdaniel is the best player in the entire league by total star rating, and the only player with a 6-star rating.

Official League Records

Debut & Defection

Mcdaniel joined the league in Season 1, playing for the Hades Tigers.

At the end of Season 1, Umpire Chaff announced two more "mystery blessings" that "happened at the same time as the regular election but were not officially part of said election." This caused Mcdaniel to defect from the Hades Tigers to the Hawaii Fridays, in exchange for Nolanestophia Patterson. In words of Blaseball officials, "There is still no clear answer for why this happened."

Season 3

On Season 3 Day 34, McDaniel swallowed a peanut and experienced a yummy reaction, increasing Mcdaniel's batting stats to .

On Season 3 Day 73, McDaniel hit the game winning home run at the bottom of the 10th inning against the Kansas City Breath Mints, breaking the standing tie for 6th place in the Good League.

At the end of Season 3, Mcdaniel was traded from the Fridays to the Breckenridge Jazz Hands for Bevan Underbuck via the Highway Robbery blessing, then immediately traded to the Crabs for Holden Stanton via the Headhunter blessing. The first blessing targets "the best player in the league," and the second blessing targets "the best hitter in your subleague," proving that Mcdaniel is an exceptionally valuable player.

Season 5

At the end of Season 5, the Baltimore Crabs received the Zombies, Run! Presents Horde Hallucinations, Rollback Netcode, and Falling Stars blessings, all dramatically increasing McDaniel's overall stats, including a batting stat of . Immediately after these blessings resolved, the Seduction blessing caused Mcdaniel to be traded back to the Jazz Hands for Holden Stanton, in a coincidental reversal of the Season 3 trade.

Season 6

On Season 6, Day 29, Mcdaniel's baserunning ability was siphoned by San Francisco Lovers lineup player Sigmund Castillo in the Blooddrain, reducing it from to .

Following the end of the regular games in Season 6, Mcdaniel and Jessica Telephone received the Shelled modification, which encased them in giant peanut shells. They cannot play in this state, effectively skipping them in the rotation. This was a result of the The Third Strike.

In a repeat of the Season 3 trade, Mcdaniel was traded to the Baltimore Crabs in exchange for Holden Stanton during the Season 6 elections via the Headhunter blessing.

In Literature

Crabs Poet Laureate Runolfio Peeper wrote the following verse, which appeared in the Baltimore Slun shortly before season 4:

Nagomi’s travelled o’er the earth
The journey started out of hell
Returned to islands of her birth
And for a Friday spent a spell

But sad to say, she could not stay
The Blaseball Gods (those wicked frauds)
Did her betray, sent her away
Based on her squad’s poor gambling odds

And so she flew to Breckinridge
But hardly settled in that place
She dove from Royal Gorge’s bridge
And there she found a Crab’s embrace.

Once in the deep Crabitat keep
The Olde One spread its claws and led
A stunning evolution’s leap.
Now her humanity all shed,
She’ll lead the team to get ahead.
