Meant to do this last evening, but I'll post it now. Pretty good night last night in the MLB. Brian Dozier, MN. 2B had 3 HR's and hes' hit another tonight, giving him 39 HR's on the year. May be the first Twin to hit 3 HR's in one game since Harmon Killebrew! Davis, BLT. 34 HR. Davis hit his...

I don't have to say this, but as we all know there are plenty of fast white baseball players! I never have understood why the fast ones don't attempt to steal more bases. Mike Trout stole 49 bases in 54 attempts his rookie season and led the league and 33 the next season. He probably has the...

After last night's win and his season long performance, which includes a league leading 19 wins and the front runner for the AL Cy Young award, I thought I would start a thread on Rick Porcello. Porcello, 19-3 on the year has been a little under the radar for his career. With the exception of...

Sorry. I made a little mistake in speaking of MVP front runners. I should have included Josh Donaldson of Toronto. He's probably been the front runner with Altuve and Trout in second and third. However, if Trout stays hot he could catch Donaldson too! That chemotherapy I went through with cancer...

It's looks as though Mike Trout is making a serious run toward another MVP. He's halfway to hitting the cycle tonight with a HR and a triple in the first 2 innings. His second HR in his second game in September. He has now past consensus front runner Altuve in OBP., SLG., OPS., OPS+, HR's, and...

Wow! Bumgarner and the Giants beat Arrieta and the Cubs, 3-2. Bumgarner's 99th career win is a big one at only 26 years old. He should get at least 3-4 more starts by the end of the year and get number 100 or more this season.

I know most everyone here is watching college football and I caught the Stanford game and McCaffrey last night, but there's a great pitching duel going on in Chicago, if anyone cares. Madison Bumgarner and Jake Arrieta. Right now it's 2-1 San Francisco. Bumgarner with 3 WS rings is going for...

It's been a while since we've updated the top 10, so I thought I would look and see where it stands. I see there's been some changes. 1. Jason Day 2. Dustin Johnson. I didn't realize he'd moved up this far. Great. 3. Jordan Spieth 4. Henrik Stenson 5. Rory McIlroy. Didn't realize he'd moved down...

Right DD! He's my personal favorite as to who is the best of all time. He could do it all! I could go on and on about the Georgia Peach, but one of my favorite stats about him is he only struck out 12 times at age 40 in 490 at bats, hit .357 and scored 104 runs! I think Cobb could have played in...

That was in 2013 PHillisFan and no McCutchen numbers were not that good and he didn't lead the league in not one stat. Arizona's Paul Goldschmidt was robbed of the NL MVP that year! Goldschmidt led the league in HR's, RBI's, SLG., OPS, OPS+, and total bases! Goldschmidt even scored more runs...

Right KS5000. Trout just hit HR number 26 tonight and is closing in on some milestone numbers in his age 24 season which includes: Hits: He has 891 and will get number 1,000 at age 25. Runs: He has 580. Could get his 600th this year. RBI: Despite batting lead off earlier in his career and 2nd...

Ditto Shadowlight! I like how Turner is being called a speedster on all the evaluations of his talent. He stole 2 more bases tonight. Giving him 20 in 44 games! He also went 2-4 hitting with a run scored and his BA. is up to .347. Bregman continued his progress, getting his 6th HR tonight.

In addition to the Trea Turner thread who incidentily has a 6.9 WAR, here are some other MLB Rookies who are playing very well and should make an impact. Obviously, LA Dodger SS, Corey Seager will probably be the ROY. He's been mentioned here also. The next tier includes: Colorado Rockies OF...

"You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives. Genesis: 50-20. Twenty-Two, when I went back into the gym a little over a month ago, it was very painful! I had lost just about all of my muscle,(50 lbs.), and my joints ached...

Thank you Shadowlight and to everyone here who has wished me well. Yes PHillisFan, I have missed posting on the mlb thread, but I've kept up with the vast amount of talent that's out there and coming up. If someone hasn't already, I will soon list all that talent! Our future in the MLB looks bright!

"for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world? Only he that believes that Jesus is the son of God." I John 5: 4-5 As most of you know about me, I am a man of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and...

Yes, also was good as the original Willy Wonka, not the one that Johnny Depp played. Lessons to be learned from that movie on how you shouldn't spoil children. He also made a small appearance in Bonnie and Clyde, 1967 movie.

Actually, Trout won the MVP award in 2014. Also, last night he accomplished something NO ONE has ever done! He has scored at least 100 runs and hit 25 home runs in his five seasons through his age 24 season!

Thanks so much guys for the welcome back. I plan on posting about my cancer diagnosis and treatment, soon. It's just been a tough battle and I am not 100% yet, but I plan to be. I want to let you all know about what I went through in hope that it may help someone one day who may face what I did...

Hello CF and thank you FootballDad and Don for inquiring as to my whereabouts. I've been battling throat cancer over the last 6 months and I'm happy to say as of now, I am cancer free! I may post more about it on the Happy Hour Thread or Lifestyle Thread, if that's OK? I've learned a lot of...

Miami Dolphins 1972 Perfect Season starting defense..... LDE- Vern Den Herder- White LDT- Manny Fernandez-? RDT- Bob Heinz-White RDE- Bill Stanfill-White LLB- Doug Swift-White MLB- Nick Buoniconti- White RLB- Mike Kolen- White LCB- Tim Foley- White RCB- Curtis Johnson-Black SS- Jake Scott-...

Possibly CrazyFinn...and see my prior post #108.

Right Jaxvid! I've said it at least a half a dozen times. The only reason we're seeing McCaffrey is because his dad was an NFL player. I don't think even with that advantage he had, he had many D-1 offers. His high school stats were good but not mind boggling. There were 3 (white kids), here in...

Glad to here Freddette is still around. Redick had another 26 point game last night. JJ would easily be a top 10 scorer or top 5 if he got more attempts. Redick, 16pts./game, is averaging around 11 shot attempts per game. Whereas the top scorers are getting 19/20 shots per game. Love...

Yes, wa33. There were several white CB's in the late 70's/ early 80's including HOFer Roger Wehrli, Tim and Steve Foley no relation, Bobby Bryant, and although sport historian will argue and he may be right Nolan Cromwell was listed as a CB for one year with the Rams and Chicago's Terry Schmidt...
