27 HR & 86 RBI for Tucker


30-100 would feel so good.

How many 7 hole guys have done that in baseball history?
As hot as he is right now I wouldn't put it past him. I'm just worried he peaked too early and is going to cool off for the playoffs.

that's a good question.

I think a few 6-hole hitters have done that --- maybe on the 90's Mariners / Yankees or 70's Reds / Red Sox

Worried that Tucker has peaked...nah, he's just been this amazing for more than half a season.

Did that CFer jump for the ball like he was gonna rob a HR only for it to hit the base of the wall?

Angels want to help Yuli win the batting title --- not exactly great effort there

considering how good he still is now at this age, Yuli might've been a HOF-caliber player if he had played his entire career in the US. I really hope he wins the batting title. I'd like him to be remembered outside of Houston.

This was an interesting fangraphs article on Yuli and Jose Abreu regarding HOF counterfactuals. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/should-yuli-gurriel-and-jose-abreu-be-hall-of-famers/

Doesn't this pitcher kind of remind you of Bird Fidrych? Only he's was a righty. And he's not scooping up dirt on the mound.

okay, the 1977 Boston Red Sox...one of the all-time lineups of death...

Butch Hobson posted 112 RBI primarily hitting in the 7th & 8th spots in the order.

Rice, Yaz, and Fisk also drove in 100+ that season as the 3-4-5 hitters.

George Scott was the 6-hole hitter. Fred Lynn batted 2nd.

they were alternating L-R-L-R back then too

This game is moving sloooooow. I'd like to put a crooked number up in the 5th and go to sleep.

SuperJack could be a .200 & 30 home run guy if the Rangers would pick him up.

He would end up getting a contract for 6 years, $105MM. Then after 2 years they would just give him to the Yankees and continue to pay his salary.

All this moaning about West Coast travel, but the AL West has really treated us great.

I do still miss some of our old NL rivals, but the move couldn't have worked out better for us.
