yea mad props for that.. an amazing feet

congrats to Raffy on 3,001!

I really hope the Phillies trade Thome. He will not do anything this year or next year or anything. And Ryan Howard is gonna be great. Walk-Off homer last night. 😄 They say he's gonna be the next David Ortiz. And Chase Utley is fantastic too, he's gonna be one of the best clutch hitters ever. The Phillies have a really bright future. Ryan Howard, Chase Utley, Brett Myers has been great and he's only 24 i think, Gavin Floyd i think will be really good, And Cole Hamels is one the the top rated pospects in the minors and has been great in AA.

A's are looking pretty pretty good right now. They probably won't catch the Californiaanaheimlosangeles Angels but they could give a run for their money.

Hudson Street should be AL rookie of the year if he doesn't have any meltdowns in the stretch run. The guy has been lights out!

i think you forgot the words america,earth, and universe in the angels name 😆

as of this morning D. Lee was leading all tripple crown categories.. can he do it? I think RBI will be a problem

I think its gonna be really hard, but yeah probaly RBI's is the hardest because no one on the cubs can get on base, lol they are like almost last in OBP with there first 2 batters, I dont see him doing it though,

nomar coming back will help, and they have another guy i cant remember his name at the moment whos could actually beat him in home runs, and will prevent people from walking him at least

I hate the cubs, but I hope D Lee gets the crown. U have always liked him.

On another note, who is next closest to 3000 hits? Craig Biggio is closing in, maybe next year.

orioles are stupid... get swept by the the D rays and they are getting rid of a starter rather then adding a new one...

Well it's not like Ponson is helping the O's much anyways.

yea but when you need a starter you cant exactly go give up a starter.. Ponson did pretty good in his last start. But Nevin said no to the trade anyway so it wont matter.

I guess Rafe's been taking something other than Viagra...

i couldnt believe it when i first heard it.. there goes the Hall of Fame

yep, a lot of people already didnt think he was good enough for the hall, but because of his all time numbers hed of had to make it, but now hes done. As is the O's season (but that was done before this anyway)

I dont know. Rafe has the number to easily get in the Hall Of Fame but if he is not allowed too, then Mcguire, and Bonds shouldnt either.

I do agree that it sends a bad message if he's allowed but they're better not pick and choose who goes in.

Im not sayign that hes not allowed.. i just dont think he'll get voted in now because of this

i dont think he gets in easy without it. I heard a lot of guys on espn shows saying they didnt think he deserved it just because he stayed healthy and consistent. They didnt think he was an all time great. only like 4 all star games and only 1 start in them i think. Id sorta agree with them, but if he hits 600 home runs hed have to just on #'s alone.

But on stats alone, he should get in.

Over 3000 hits, maybe 600 home runs, tons of RBI's. Thats pretty crazy.
ESPN guys froget that Palmerio had somebody on his team called Cal Ripken who always got the spotlight. No wonder why he rarely got chosen considering MLB rules that state each team has to have 1 player in the game, and considering the Orioles werent that good, they usually only had one player.
Also, on the Rangers he had Putch on the team and they werent that good either.
Anyways, if measuring somebodies greatness by using the amount of All Star games, then thats a joke. How many times has somebody been on the team due to popularity.

I just think if they put McGwire in the Hall of Fame, then they should bring Palmiero too. He has twice the amount of hits, will have the same amount of HR's, 30 point higher average. Each have the almost the same amount of playoff appearances. Its true that he has more AB's than McGwire, but so has alot of people in the Hall of fame.
