pcgd Posted July 1, 2007 Share Posted July 1, 2007 I mentioned this in the Frank Thomas 500HR or the Phillies 10k loses thread (can't remember which one) but has there ever been a year with so many milestones in one season?I think we are witnessing one of, if not the most, impressive seasons of personal/team records in history right now, and I thought it deserved its own thread.If I missed any major milestones let me know.Has happened:Trevor Hoffman - 500 SavesSammy Sosa - 600 HRsFrank Thomas - 500 HRsCraig Biggio - 3000 HitsWill Happen:Philadelphia Phillies - 10k losses as a teamChicago Cubs - 10k wins as a teamRoger Clemens - 350 WinsBarry Bonds - All time HR RecordTom Glavine - 300 WinsAlex Rodriguez - 500 HRsMight HappenGreg Maddux - 350 WinsKen Griffey Jr. - 600 HRsManny Ramierez - 500 HRsJim Thome - 500 HRsLong Shot for this seasonGary Sheffield - 500 HRsI just thought it was pretty cool.

Billy B Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I think the Cubs are going to get to 10K losses as well. Also, Bobby Cox is going to break the all-time record for ejections if he hasn't already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Audiodrama Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I think Chipper Jones has a doubles milestone and the all time Atlanta HR record coming.The record for most homers in Braves franchise history, or just since they moved to Atlanta? I think Chipper might have a little while to go before he broke the franchise record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
averyj Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I guess this sort of fits in... Russell Martin became the first ever Canadian born catcher to start the All-Star Game. You know, I rarely visit ccslsc anymore. I really should fix that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBGKon Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 As much as I despise the Georgie Boy's Evil Empire, I give credit to A-Rod when he gets 500 HR at the age of 32 (possibly 31 if he does it before his brithday on July 27), being the youngest to reach the plateau.

Shumway Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Not that big of a deal, but I think Aubrey Huff had his 1,000th hit on the same day he hit for the cycle. I was there, talking to Hector Carrasco, who has since been designated for assignment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Chipper might have a little while to go before he broke the franchise record. Atlanta Braves history.On cue, Chipper's two homeruns tonight give him the all-time Atlanta Braves record for homeruns, with 372.Safe to say, Hank Aaron still has the Braves' franchise record.....
