Michael Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Did he reach the PA requirement, though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 Per rule 10.22a he wins the title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piazza31 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Per rule 10.22a he wins the title. Is that the rule that states the number of plate appearances needed to qualify will count as hitless AB's until qualification? AKA, the same rule that Gywnn won a batting title with in the 90's and what Melky Waived to prevent his BA Title this year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Then that's awesome and sh*t! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dom2613 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Yeah we won something. Now sign him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 Yeah, it means that if Stanton went into the batter's box without a bat for the PA needed to qualify for the title, he'd still win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yokofox33 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 He should get 15/300 now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotcorner Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 I'm more surprised that he hit .290 actually. But awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mystikol87 Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 He should get 15/300 now. I say 20/470, but those are practically the same deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 He should get 15/300 now. They should offer him more. He wants to play elsewhere and will definitely turn down 300mil Let's offer him 15/500 and HOPE he accepts it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puma Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Yeah, it means that if Stanton went into the batter's box without a bat for the PA needed to qualify for the title, he'd still win. I don't think he would necessarily need a bat to hit the ball. He could just go up there and swing his forearms to hit the ball just as hard, if not harder.

dim Posted October 4, 2012 Share Posted October 4, 2012 Yeah, it means that if Stanton went into the batter's box without a bat for the PA needed to qualify for the title, he'd still win. That's insanely awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted October 4, 2012 Author Share Posted October 4, 2012 Per Ben Maller: He joins A-Rod and Albert Pujols as only MLB players with .600 slugging percentage before turning 23 years old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piazza31 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 How did those two scrubs do it? Pujols was actually 27, and A-Rod had Bolo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Makes sense. Stanton is actually 19. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Sign GC Mike to a 100 Year 1 billion Dollar contract! Let's hope, nay. Let's pray, NAY. LET'S MAKE A NEW RELIGION OF HIM AND HOPEPRAYWORSHIP HE ACCEPTS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piazza31 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Makes sense. Stanton is actually 19. Stanton is actually Giancarlo Michael Roy Cruz Hobbs Stanton. Instead of the bat being forged out of tree struck by lightning, Giancarlo Hobbs was forged by the sledgehammers that took down the Berlin Wall.

pierremvp1 Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 A few of you are starting the think about this clearer, but you're still thinking too small. We should just go ahead and offer him a lifetime contract in return for 100% of the team profits each year...let him take whatever money he needs each year and whatever's left over he can give back and we can use it to pay other players and the expenses.........and just hope he accepts.

Michael Posted October 5, 2012 Share Posted October 5, 2012 Give him small children to eat 3 times a day for 80 years as well as a shrine for every section that each fan must pray at during the rest of the team's at bats, pitches, any moment when he's not involved in the play or at bat. Also, give him all of Antarctica so he can train his penguin army. Or Polar Bears. Whatever the hell is at the South Pole. Not only that, pay him in platinum bars. 500 a day. Offer him Presidency of the entire earth and half of Mars. And not only that, give him a Klondike Bar whenever he wants, no matter what he does. He has to do nothing for a Klondike Bar. ... AND HOPE HE ACCEPTS!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
