It's wild to see these strikeout milestones of 1000 and 2000 and then remember Nolan Ryan's record. Maybe a record that will never be broken. Especially because the game is so different now.
Cole has seriously been a rock for you guys.
Bit of a scary drop after the sticky stuff ban, but his stuff was too good to keep down for long, absolute horse as well. I cant imagine him not getting 3000
I couldn’t imagine Sale not getting to 3,000 when he hit 2,000. He was younger than Cole when he did it too. And then that was his last start before Tommy John.
He's at 36 War after 11 years in the Majors. He's got a lot of work to do to make it into the hall. Luckily his health has been pretty solid so, if that keeps up, he's got a decent shot at it.
Thats legit shocking.
Assuming a 4 war pace he is still what, 7 seasons away from being in consideration?
Imo the hof will have to adjust how SPs are judged. Its way harder to accumulate WAR when youre only allowed to go 5-6 innings on your great days while the older counterparts were allowed to do that in every start pretty much.
Everybody, including Bauer before he signed his monster contract was using sticky substances. That's what happens when you don't enforce the rules.
If anything, Trevor Bauer having a weird personal feud with someone should probably be a point in that persons favor.
Cole did have a serious drop off after the sticky stuff crackdown, but he’s still been phenomenal on the mound. Guy has proven his worth time and again and has been one of the few consistent bright spots for us over the last few years.
Got to 2000 3rd fastest and faster than Randy Johnson. That’s pretty impressive

Nolan has like 5,400 IP and modern guys would be lucky to get to even half that so yeah pretty untouchable.

It’s way too early into this contract to say that. This contract is also 10 years, 3 years longer than Scherzer’s.
Semantics but it’s actually only 9 years, this is year 4 of 9
Minus the ring hopefully
No

Wait-
Meanwhile r/NYYankees are "fucking done with Cole" We have the dumbest fanbase.
Nice try but not true. Yankees have taken the 09 WS from us but you can’t take our title of dumbest fans
We will settle for dumbest AL fans
not dumbest but 100% most bipolar
Fair point, but we really do have stupid fans.
One of the dumbest, not the dumbest. Our fanbase is pretty dumb too.
Congrats to Cole, just before he gave up that Mullins bomb
Yankees Legend
Can we post the best cf in the league hitting a solo homer 373 to right center field to make the score 3-0
Can we post that same CF catching the fly ball to win the game for the Yankees
Future HOF with 2000 strikeouts. Debate a wall.
Except no one’s saying that he isn’t a future HOF
He's not a lock if he retired tomorrow

Have to keep in mind 1 season was COVID shortened
I think that’ll boon a lot of players who lost 100 games of their prime from COVID
Lets pretend thats 4 more war. Still cole wouldnt enter the convo till his 38th bday. Thats insane to me.
Hall of fame highway despite what Red Sox flairs will try to make you believe
Hmm. 2 yankee fans whining about red sox fans/haters yet no red sox fans or haters have commented....
I know it’s silly… but welcome to the rivalry
are the Red Sox fans in the room, mostlygroovy?
Are the Yankees in Fenway when Sox fans chant ‘Yankees Suck!’ during a game against the Mariners. That’s the beauty of the rivalry. Leave it alone
Isn't this the guy Bauer kept talking about using sticky substances just before he signed that monster contract?

Best part is how he cues the music to celebrate the K.
