It'll be cool when Albert hits 700 but it's hard to be so thrilled by it after he's been so bad for a decade now. I don't know what would have been better for his legacy. Retiring an enigma like Jimmie Foxx or overcoming a decade of anonymity to do something great eventually.

I don't know. But what he is doing now is simply unbelievable. He is in the right place for sure - nowhere better than St. Louis. Winning games with walk off home runs - especially when they are approaching 700 in total is amazing.

I guess people are only typically let down by compilers who reach minimum milestones. Like if Albert hung on for 500 homers I think people would be pretty dismissive about it. But this is 700, which is kind of like someone getting 4,000 hits.

You can get 697 on a Topps Now card today, or wait for 700….or 701
