3,000 hits. 500 home runs. 300 wins. 3,000 strikeouts.
Rightly or wrongly, these milestone career totals have been celebrated for decades. I personally consider achieving any one of them to be a, "big deal," as the OP framed it. I understand that advanced statistics are available and perhaps more useful when comparing one particular player to another. However, I also try to keep things in context. In and of itself, racking up 3,000 hits in Major League Baseball is quite an accomplishment. In short, yes, it IS a big deal. Kudos to all who have done it. If 4,500 total bases somehow becomes a milestone, which I doubt, then let us applaud those players, too. Best regards, Eric |
