It really says something that I would prefer Loria to be president than Trump.

Even in the field of genuine human garbage, Trump is still head and shoulders the worst.

Nah, there are worse out there. He's just the worst of the baddies who was willing to run for office.

Sano hits 10 in the finals.

It's Judge's turn to answer
 
Re: 2017 MLB Season - The Goat Memorial Thread

Tatis didn't do Sano any favors with pitches on the outside.

But 10 is a good final round number normally.
 
Re: 2017 MLB Season - The Goat Memorial Thread

Judge hits 11 and doesn't even break a sweat in doing so. He still had 2:03 left on the clock when he made contact with the winner.

Only two things give me pause about 60:

1) He's at 30 with only 76 games to go.

2) Sooner or later the rest of the league is going to adjust to him. We'll see what happens then.

True. I didn't know he was that big. I knew he was good sized guy but not 6'8" and 282. Wow.

Agreed. IIRC, McGwire had 33 at the All-Star break in 1987, and then hit only 16 in the second half to set the rookie record at 49. Throw in that only 2 players have hit 50+ HRs since 2008, and Judge would have to be elated if he were to reach 50 HRs. I just don't see 60 in the cards, and if he were to reach that total, I would chalk it up to steroids.

One more reason that all those records should have a big fat * next to them.

The new ball is suspect too.

The only way to do this right is for there to be an independent auditor. As long as the league polices itself it will just be pro wrestling.
