That is an impressive stat. <BR/><BR/>But your mentioning of a career milestone statistic leads me to consider a bizarre postscript:<BR/><BR/>Juan is averaging right around 200 hits a year. Even in this really off-year he is on pace to hit 192. While I imagine such a speed-based player will fall off dramatically as he hits 33-34, he is still going to pile up a whole mess of hits.<BR/><BR/>What I am getting at is it would not be crazy to see Juan make it to 3000 hits, the automatic hall of fame level. <BR/><BR/>Let's say he continues to average 200 hits a year until 33.<BR/>He will then be at 2240 hits (roughly). Juan has also shown himself to very durable, so it may not be totally insane that he will have a long career. If he averages 150 hits a year at this stage he only has to play until 38 to break the 3000 mark. I think a more sharp fall-off is likely, probably even sooner than we think, but that would be the ultimate HOF contradiction, a 700 OPS guy with 3000 hits.<BR/><BR/>And even more importantly, if that were to happen, would your head explode?jimbilly4https://www.blogger.com/profile/10488184670253746128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3937814114396988859.post-50780985725638014622007-07-27T15:11:00.000-07:002007-07-27T15:11:00.000-07:00I suppose you would say the same thing about 753 h...I suppose you would say the same thing about 753 home runs, huh?

Rollins may make 540 outs while hitting 30 HRs with a .850 OPS. <BR/><BR/>Similarly, one can get 200 hits and still be bad, which has always been the point to me.jimbilly4https://www.blogger.com/profile/10488184670253746128noreply@blogger.com
