Ortiz has over 600 and he will be a lock.

add that beltre will get 3000 hits and it's a lock.

 

[whoknew]

Hit his 437th HR last night. Which was his 2907 hit. 

Going to end up with over 450 and 3000. Pretty damn impressive.

plus two more excellent defensive plays

plus the just-enough admonishment toward Rougned Odor for his baserunning blunders, leading to Odor's walk-off HR.

 

[Wrigley]

He will get 600 doubles.  Only Bonds and Rose have that many and are not in the Hall.

SEE!!!

 

[Long Ball Larry]

His top 6 comps through age 36 are hall of famers.  He's a little light on the black ink and gray ink, but he is 5th all-time in WAR among 3B.  The top 9 are all in the hall of fame, except Chipper (who will be).  

 

[whoknew]

Up to 2993 hits and 453 home runs. Remarkable career.

 

[Bogart]

Don't think Biggio will get in. Especially once Damon gets 3k.

Beltre has had 2.5 good seasons in his career. He has no shot.

Walker with a big 0-3 here.

Walker with a big 0-3 here.

Ooffaah.  Yikes.

 

[Eephus]

Bill James' favorite toy now gives Beltre a 100% chance of reaching 3,000 hits and 450 HRs.

Doug Gottlieb plays the race card to accuse Beltre of using PEDs

Doug Gottlieb  ✔@GottliebShow

Adrian Beltre with VERY rare offensive explosion in his 30s - forgive me if I wonder 

Michael Young ✔@MikeyY626

I assume you're wondering about Paul Molitor, Mike Schmidt, Randy Johnson, and Mariano Rivera as well? Lazy ### take...

Nah, because the first three are white.  

 

[oso diablo]

anytime i hear the PED argument about late-career power peaks, i ask if they know when Hank Aaron's career high in HR was.

 

[msudaisy26]

He is in on the condition everyone gets to pat him on the head after his speech. 

 

[whoknew]

Well, its officially over. Beltre announced his retirement.

Next stop, Cooperstown.

 

[Bogart]

fun bump now that he is on the ballot
