  • Re: 2017 MLB Season - The Goat Memorial Thread

    Judge hits 11 and doesn't even break a sweat in doing so. He still had 2:03 left on the clock when he made contact with the winner.

      Talk about an impressive performance. The guy could hit 60 this season.

        I dont know about 60, but 50+ is definitely in play.

          I'd be shocked if he doesn't hit at least 50 but won't be if he hits 60 or more.

            Only two things give me pause about 60:

            1) He's at 30 with only 76 games to go.

            2) Sooner or later the rest of the league is going to adjust to him. We'll see what happens then.

              True. I didn't know he was that big. I knew he was good sized guy but not 6'8" and 282. Wow.

                Agreed. IIRC, McGwire had 33 at the All-Star break in 1987, and then hit only 16 in the second half to set the rookie record at 49. Throw in that only 2 players have hit 50+ HRs since 2008, and Judge would have to be elated if he were to reach 50 HRs. I just don't see 60 in the cards, and if he were to reach that total, I would chalk it up to steroids.

                    The new ball is suspect too.

                    The only way to do this right is for there to be an independent auditor. As long as the league polices itself it will just be pro wrestling.

                        B.S. There are, and always have been, so many variables with respect to the game of baseball and baseball players. The ball, the bats, the height of the mound, the ballparks they play in, enforcement of rules relating to substances on the baseball, conditioning and nutrition, travel, drugs, etc...

                        The only deserved asterisk for baseball records is the length of the season.
                        That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                            I actually don't hate the idea. I don't like it, but I don't hate it.

                                Bummer, I was hoping the Rockies could get him. However, it did lead to this:

                                Correction: While no national media had this story, a Reddit user named “wetbutt23" had it last night. CSNChicago.com apologizes to wetbutt23 for the error.
