With momentum and repetition being such a big part of what makes a hitter successful, it's long odds that he'll be able to carry that streak any further when he rejoins the club. Only two more games to tie a 95 year old record.... Yup I was watching the game when it happened and it sucked, especially seeing how he had just passed Joe DiMaggio too, but you're right it was one if only reason to watch any games lol.

Yeah not sure tbh, I couldn't get access to the game stats last night, this is all I could find, one thing maybe is go through the replies to the tweet and maybe someone there might know...

I know he tied the AL record and could probably come back and get a hit first game but yes I wanted to see him set a new bar more than 12 or 13.

I've been pretty critical of Atkins (maybe not as much on CDC) but I gotta admit that 7 year contract is a damn steal. Love that the stupid 5 year rule we had is gone.

But yes he's a talented kid, I agree he has the skill to easily come back and get a hit first game if he wanted too, heck he could probably get a hit in the condition he is now just no running lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this year or the last couple days for sure, I'm finally starting to see the abilities that this management has for filling up a prospect system, and I've been very critical of this management for some time, but looks like their doing the right things now, so that's good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the tweets are stupid and not okay, but people change over the years. I'd say a large group of current MLBers probably said something stupid or offensive in high school. This whole situation is showing the impact social media has on sports, the media seems to pounce on anything they find, and i'm guessing that some players have deleted a few tweets recently Meant to reply to this before but got distracted, I too am getting a little sick and tired of this crap, what these guys did or said when they were immature teenagers for social media attention at a time when that language was sometimes normal growing up should be irrelevant imo. Do I agree with what they said no, but not everyone is a church boy growing up and I'm sure some of these people finding or digging up these tweets are probably hypocrites themselves which is the sad part. When did saying F@G become so wrong? What pisses me off and has for a long time is the N word and how it is still used in the music industry mostly, but do they get shamed for using it in their music? It's okay because their black? So only if your a homosexual you're allowed to use that language, really I don't know, actually asking because I'm not up to date with all this new homophobic language barrier now.

Growing up Mariners were always my team behind the Jays. Now with all the Mariners fans calling Seattle BC's team and calling all Jays fans band wagoners and stuff I take great pleasure in seeing the M's collapse. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha yeah I know what you mean, it always seems to be like that when the Jays get the opportunity to play there on a weekend, and add to it being a long weekend this year. I like the Mariners as well so I can't really knock them, and being a Canucks fan and watching Montreal fans take over the arena sometimes, I get their frustration lol. And I'll add they can also blame Vancouver tbh, for not trying to pursue an MLB team because they don't think Vancouver is a baseball city, which I have called BS for the last 10 years. The fan support for a 2 hour drive is more then the Whitecaps or Canucks get at a home game, so this BS crap that Vancouver can't support a MLB team is nonsense, just do it and stop losing revenue to the states.
