10 years ago, /u/BlameJonathan_V_R made a prediction and a bet. Give us your feet.

  1. Stumpy might want to reconsider.

    Altuve has shown real signs of decline this year, mainly in the field. He’s going to need a ton of DH ABs to get to 3000 hits. He also needs to go back to being more of a singles hitter. It’s been hard to watch. I committed to making the trip to Cooperstown if he makes the HOF, several years ago so I’m pulling hard for him to find something to extend his career long enough to get 3000. Finding a place for him to play next year is going to be a real challenge.

  2. Right now he has 2377 hits. So he needs 623 hits to reach 3K; over 5 seasons that is 125 (rounded). He should be able to do it.

  3. Man the sub really used to be better back then. People would come here and have a good time and the shit posting kept the sub alive. Now it’s 95% bitching and crying with this sub being a deserted wasteland 10 months out of the year.

  4. The youngest player to reach 3000 hits was Ty Cobb at age 34. Predicting a 25 year old to only be year behind a guy that would finish with over 4000 hits is crazy.

  5. Altuve turned 35 in May. More than likely this guy cut off his feet and bled out months ago, hence why he hasn’t responded.
