If it could be done by a Yankee, even better. To this day, "61" still stands as the record in my eyes. Expand Oh yeah. That should be the number as all players caught using steroids should have their stats removed from record. Quote

I think it's just going to have to be up to the individual to choose which number to respect/honor/appreciate. 61 and 755 will be the records, in my eyes, until they're broken outside of the steroid era. But I know that the official records read differently. I honestly don't even know that the actual records are. 1 Quote

Expand One could also consider Babe Ruth's 60 HR's the record since he did it in a 154 game season whereas Maris hit his 61st on the last day of a 162 game season. Quote

Expand I say the same thing when it comes to Eric Dickerson's single season rushing "record" of 2,105 yards in 1984. Everyone knows the real rushing record and gold standard for RB's is OJ's 2,003 yards in 1973. Only RB in NFL history to rush for over 2,000 yards in just 14 games. OJ - 2,003 yards in 14 games >>>>> Eric - 2,105 yards in 16 games Edited July 29, 2022 by Greg S Quote

snafu Posted August 1, 2022 Posted August 1, 2022 Uh oh. Change the thread title. Looks like the Yankees need to hire a better appraiser. The Dallas Cowboys apparently are the most valuable sports franchise. https://apple.news/AjqMxVltORMidCWQC87UgNA Quote
Greg S Posted August 1, 2022 Posted August 1, 2022 Yesterday sucked blowing the lead in the 9th but still a good weekend taking 3 of 4 from KC. Quote
BADOLBILZ Posted August 1, 2022 Author Posted August 1, 2022 Picked up a solid #2 starter in Frankie Montas. Gave up some nice young prospect pitchers but when you are unnecessarily cheap in the offseason that's what you gotta' do(Carlos Rodon would have been nice). Injurino back in his comfort zone on the 60 day IL now. He won't be back until mid-September at earliest. Quote
Greg S Posted August 2, 2022 Posted August 2, 2022 Montas, Trivino, Effress. Good job Cashman. Pitching just got stronger. Hopefully this is the year we get 28. Quote

If the Yankees and Astros meet in the playoffs I want any potential game 7 to be played in the Bronx. Quote
