I agree he's unlikely to hit major milestones like 500 homers or 3,000 hits, or 300 wins / 5,000 strike outs, but I think most modern pitchers will also struggle to reach those milestones and most modern hitters won't win three MVPs.
He’s about to win his third MVP and he’s just entering his prime. He’s poised to be at least a 45-45 player during the year he’s rehabbing from Tommy John surgery. Oh and he’s an ace pitcher and the best two way player since Babe Ruth. Yes, he’s one of the greatest players in the past 50 years.
