Which of baseball’s most unbreakable records might actually get broken in 2019?

In the years since Barry Bonds retired, records have been mostly replaced in baseball by fun facts. A record is something you chase. People know what it is in advance. A fun fact can be just as impressive, but it is bespoke and discovered only after it happens. Mike Trout has the most WAR in history through age 26. Jamie Moyer had more wins after his 31st birthday than Pedro Martinez had in his career. Mark Grace once hit .825 when he went the opposite way,nfl jerseys for cheap authentic  the highest ever. Fun facts, but not records.

There will be some fantastic fun facts this baseball season, a few dozen from Trout alone, but try to find a real record that might be broken. Records, since Bonds retired, hardly ever get broken. Other than Aaron Judge breaking the rookie home run record in 2017,nfl jersey supply  and the Yankees breaking the all-time team home run record last year — both fairly fringy as records go — can you think of any record in the 2010s that (A) you were aware of before 2010 and (B) has been broken since? Not really!

The main reason is records get set in extreme environments, and baseball mostly isn’t as extreme as it was in the 1960s (when pitching was out of hand) or the 1930s (when offense was) or the 1880s (when there were only eight pitchers and they each threw 600 innings)cheapest nfl jerseys . Instead of records, we have to settle for seeing the greatest baseball players in the history of the world, putting up non-record statistics. Alas.wholesale authentic nfl jerseys

But what if a fan from the future came back in time and told us a record was set this year? What if she said it was one of the big ones, even? Let’s say, one of the 20 most significant records that can be set entirely within the course of a single season?buy nfl jerseys Which record do you figure it would be?official nfl jerseys

What follow are The Big 20, the 20 records I estimate are the biggest deal, ordered by how likely they are to be broken this year. We’re ignoring the purely anachronistic records, the ones that are of such an ancient style of play there is no opportunity for a player to break them. We’re treating only batting records set since 1901, and only pitching records set since 1920, as official records. And we’re not debating the composition of The Big 20 itself, because it exists only for the framing of this article. What is nfl nike jerseys  up for debate is the question at hand. We’re starting with the least likely.
