Mookie is pretty good but TW don't like him tho. 2 out, 13 pitch at bat that ends in a grand slam.

Most ever wins before the All Star break. JD Martinez has 79 RBIs in July. Chris Sale has had 5 straight starts with 11+ K***8217;s and 1 or fewer walks - which is the first time that's ever happened in MLB history. Chris Sale***8217;s streak of 5 straight starts with 11+ K***8217;s is his 5th since 2012. The rest of MLB combined has 4 such streaks in that time.

Mookie is batting .350+ with a 1.120 OPS and those rates have only been accomplished by 20 players most of which were in the dead ball era or the roid era. The only legitimate players who have done that are Frank Thomas ('94), Ted Williams (6x last in '57), Jeff Bagwell ('94)(also arguably used roids), Mickey Mantle (3x last in '61), Stan Musial ('48), and Jim Thome ('02).

That's uhhhh pretty good, folks.

You're an idiot fan boy

Mookie is really fuking good. He's not Mike Trout. Stop

You're looking for an argument that's not really there. Dead ball era and juiced up player stats were taken out. That's all. Relax.

i'm relaxed, and not looking to argue, but saying dead ball era and 'juiced up player' stats aren't legitimate is lol

Plus anyone can cherry pick a stat and say only x y & z players ever did this


Cmon bro


And no one hates mookie hes just not walking babe ruth reincarnated like mike trout is


Can you just admit you were wrong and trout is the best player in baseball?

Cmon bro

Babe Ruth's stats don't matter. He's just remembered as a part of history. Like I said, the dead ball era is just for historical purposes but their stats aren't taken into consideration when comparing to modern baseball achievements unless somebody does something mind boggling that compares to that era because of the ridiculous nature of that era's padded stats.

Also, I can't take anyone seriously who considers dead ball era and juicer stats as legitimate. That's just hysterical to me.

Dude babe ruth ended the dead ball era he didnt play in it most of his highlight career

Literally the defenition of dead ball era is "

In baseball, the dead-ball era was the period between around 1900 and the emergence of Babe Ruth as a power hitter in 1919. That year, Ruth hit a then-league record 29 home runs, a spectacular feat at that time. This era was characterized by low-scoring games and a lack of home runs.

Babes ruths goat seasons were with yankees when only him and trout put up those war stats

That is true. They changed the baseballs and offense exploded. I've always thought writers dismissed their stats because of the era. I would edit my comment about Betts batting average and OPS but I wouldn't want you getting upset over it.

I pitty people who werent able to watch 2001-2004 Bonds, I was a freshman in college and watched almost all the giants games because I had all the time in the world. That **** was next -next level

He was insane.

like 275 IBB in just those years

ahhh the rubber chickens

Bonds was elite on the pirates idgaf if he roided dudes a legend

Where does he get ranked? He was a top 10 possibly top 5 player with his Pirates career alone, wasn't he? And, then the Giants seasons happened.

Cardinals fire mike matheny about ****ing time lmao


What a joke
