Not sure anyone called PCA an all timer at 24

But if you don't think what he's done in a short span is impressive I have to ask why?

Regardless of the response the numbers are the numbers so it matters not

And, yes, the numbers at the END of the season are what matter

NL players with more All-Star votes than PCA: 34.

MLB position players w/ higher WAR: 0

Overall:
Ohtani (#1)
PCA (#2)

WTF happened to this guy?

We have 5 pages of PCA hate (probably)

Absolute crickets in this bitch now which is as comical as it gets

But no one talks about Cal??

Can’t see Schwarber not making out if he gets to 500 HRs. He had no chance before last year, but has a lot of big HRs, which voters like.

 

[Boner_18]

500hr and possible sub 40 career war would be a miss. Even 500 with sub 50 with his lack of peak war is neat one to consider. I think he misses. Even if he gets to 500 hes maybe the first clean 500hr hitter to miss IMO.

PCA is an unlikable douche human being, its that simple. Amazing ball player who ill hate until and if hes a Yankee. Then ill reverse course.

At least you're honest about your hypocrisy. Vegas Dave approves of this post, a LOT.

 

[Boner_18]

Are you? Do you like PCA because hes on your team or is it that you're in favor of all douche human beings?

 

[Cougar Bait]

I feel like I'm pretty consistent in that I'm a results oriented guy. I also think there's a difference between talking shit to trailer trash Sox fans and (for instance) beating your wife. So, I guess it depends on your definition of "douche bag human being"

Maybe you can qualify that

But yeah, if you want to make a correlation between Trump / PCA

I'm fine with it

 

[Boner_18]

Nah I aint talking politics. If PCA was a Cardinal you'd hate his guts.

No shit

I'm not sure what your point is though

I can recognize greatness, it's easy because numbers exist (re: Ohtani, plays for a team I don't like, but he's incredible)

My opinion of shitty people (Aroldis Chapman comes to mind) doesn't skew what the numbers are

WAR, for example, doesn't discriminate

 

[Boner_18]

Jesus fuck.

Im an admitted hypocrite because I hate on PCA now but would love him in pinstripes. Youre just on the other side of hypocrite see-saw - you slob his fucking bleached pube cock cause hes a Cubbie but would think hes an obnoxious prick if he was somewhere else.

Do you like or hate on Pujols? Goldschmidt? Suarez? Not recognize their skills, even you can do that. Do you like them or hate them?

Sports fans are hypocrites. You're a hypocrite.

 

[Cougar Bait]

I don't hate on any of those guys, calm down little buddy

If you can find one time where I was exhaustively hating on any player, let alone one of those you mentioned ok. But you won't.

I don't "hate" other players because they are on opposing teams, that's meatball shit.

I don't like them, I don't want them to win, but surely even you can understand the difference. Because there definitely is one.

Also, WTF bro I was eating
