Think Brady Anderson, Cecil Fielder, Luis Gonzalez, et al. Hank Aaron never did it even once in his career, so don’t expect to ever see Judge, Stanton, or Alonzo ever repeat the feat. Even with today’s juiced ball, I don’t think it will happen. The only hope is that the league goes to computer’s calling balls and strikes.Retired Stratmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07875617726976992573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-65446983371535055742019-11-06T11:31:11.840-05:002019-11-06T11:31:11.840-05:00Good to hear from you, LB sans J.

He's only slightly more than 1/3 of my age, at this juncture. I think he will work out some of the problems you mention - - though he can't do much about the really horrid umpiring which was exhibited this season. Innumerable times one of those blind clowns put Judge in a hole - - and once they did that, he'd strike out on a down-and-out pitch. <br /><br />I'm giving him much more slack - - and, from Hal the Cheap's perspective, why, pray tell, would he trade the player who is number one in jersey sales?? Can't see him entertaining the idea, any more than I am, at this point.

Who is that now? <br /><br />I remember that we had a terrific relief pitcher named Mike Stanton, who was usually outstanding in the postseason. Or perhaps you refer to Edwin Stanton, who did an outstanding job as secretary of war in Lincoln's cabinet. As best I can tell, though, that Stanton died in 1869.<br /><br />Stanton...Stanton...Wait, it'll come to me...HoraceClarke66https://www.blogger.com/profile/16965472730239358589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-19277364400410326412019-11-05T20:51:36.999-05:002019-11-05T20:51:36.999-05:00SAD....

If we can get good pitching for Judge, we should do it. Of course with Cashman (who usually gets taken when he tries to trade for pitching and who seems to like stocking the team with duplicates -- Judge/Stanton, Gardy/Els) that's a big "if".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-43019998731083390732019-11-05T17:01:05.450-05:002019-11-05T17:01:05.450-05:00I really like "sabrepaleos"

He's really good but not great. And not fearsome. <br /><br />We need some Velociraptors. <br /><br />Doug K. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-16106550282433099482019-11-05T16:49:48.363-05:002019-11-05T16:49:48.363-05:00Wow.

I love the big guy - he's a great rightfielder, and great teammate, but I'm increasingly finding it hard to believe he will ever be the guy we saw in 2017. And you're right about his inability to pull the ball - it kills him in almost every stadium but ours.
