Congrats to Jose, I did not think he would pull it off in the RBI category. One of the lone bright spots this year.

 

i also didnt think he'd get the numbers (i figured he'd be short on RBIs since they're largely affected by people getting on base for you)

 

this is a pretty big deal if you ask me, he's a special hitter

Typically, these kinds of obscure records don't really do anything for me, but the fact that it was a record held by Alroid rather than someone legitimate makes it that much more glorious for me.

 

I don't see how much more "legitimate" it is when a 27-year old rookie does it.

Whether he's 27 or 24, it still is quite an accomplishment. Jose is down about .450 points with his OPS vs. LHP this year or he probably has better numbers than last year. You have to figure that should bounce back, and he should come up huge again in 2016, especially with a better start not only by himself, but by his teammates.

Danks said he's never had a better teammate than Abreu. Many players are tied with Abreu for that honor in Danks' mind, but none better

 

that would be a huge claim. i am glad for that.
