Continuing to read through the questions, I'd guess Frank Robinson for lowest batting average.  I'm pretty sure he was a few points below Yaz, and it seems like those mid-'60s guys are a good bet to hit for historically poor average.

The .400 hitters are Lajoie and Hornsby.  I don't know the years.

Fewest HRs and RBI I would guess Cobb.

Correct.  .316.

Yaz hit .326 and was indeed the 2nd lowest.

Oops.  Sorry.  Cobb had the fewest HR; he did not have the fewest RBI.

Did Home Run Baker ever have a TC?  If so he could be fewest RBI...

Also, I feel like maybe Foxx had one, and he'd be a good bet for most RBI.

No, 4 TC winners hit more than Cabrera's 44.

Baker never won one.

Foxx is an excellent guess.  His 163 RBI are the 2nd most ever by a TC winner.
