2018-03-31: Brewers (Suter) at Padres (Perdomo) 7:40 PM CDT [Brewers win, 7-3]

[Greenleaf1]

I was going to guess Bonds, then checked and he's a career .298 hitter. He should've retired a year earlier.

[topper09er]

Since they mentioned Chipper Jones, he finished in an elite club with a career slash of .300+/.400+/.500+

 

Can you name the other 5 players (plus Chipper at .303/.401/.529) who have retired since Ted Williams to be in the club?

 

Ok I’ll take a stab, first 5 names that come to mind...

 

ARod

Helton

Palmeiro

Schmidt

Murray

 

Yes Helton (.316/.414/.539)

[Greenleaf1]

That it for Suter do we think, or do they let him go out for the 6th? With the day off tomorrow, it wouldn't be the worst idea to bring in Hader and see if he could go the 6th/7th to get to Albers/Knebel.

[topper09er]

Stan Musial, Hank Aaron, Mickey Mantle.... Todd Helton? Manny Ramirez?

 

Oops I screwed up, meant retired since Musial in 1963. So based on my original question Musial is right but then there are 7 total

 

Yes Manny .312/.411/.585

Check that again then. 6 guys. Williams retired in '60, Musial in '63

Man, this park has been extremely unfriendly to Thames and Bandy who have both hit multiple shots hard tonight.

[adambr2]

Cain and Yelich just look fantastic so far.

Missing 1 more of the recent .300/.400/.500 club entries, he is not in the HOF but eligible

 

So far

Edgar Martinez

Frank Thomas

Chipper Jones

Todd Helton

[topper09er]

Edgar Martinez?

 

Yes but someone got him earlier

[bigredrobbo]

Man, this park has been extremely unfriendly to Thames and Bandy who have both hit multiple shots hard tonight.

 

Gonna be fun when we get back to Miller Park!

[brewcrewdue80]

David Ortiz?

[BuckyBrewer61]

Edgar Martinez?

 

Yes but someone got him earlier

 

I’m still taking credit

[topper09er]

So is Hader being used because Hosmer is up or because he is not enough of a veteran to pitch later in the game?

[nate82]

Did someone say Helton?

[TURBO]

nevermind.

[topper09er]

David Ortiz?

 

Nope .286/.380/.552
