I'd have loved to see what that Ryan kid could have done if he hadn't suffered that career ending arm injury in 1993. He may have had more in the tank.

Speaking of such things...home runs are all the vogue, but with Cabrera getting his 500th today, there could be quite a wait for another 500 HR hitter...never mind someone breaking the all time record.

Unless Nelson Cruz (Age 40, 443 HR) truly IS ageless, there next guy with a legit chance is likely Mike Trout, who has 310 career HR and just turned 30 earlier this month. Even he'd have to average nearly 32 HR per year for the next 6 years to get there (or play well into his late 30's at a lower rate).
