I'm actually surprised there are 142 more players with a better career average.



Edit: Just looked I guess with the added Negro league players lots batted .300.

Days of Roar Tigers Podcast: Recapping Miguel Cabrera's last game and the end of year press conferences. 62 minutes.

On this episode: This week, Mark and Evan go over the movie-esque conclusion to Miguel Cabrera's professional playing career. Later, the guys review what was learned from the end-of-year press conference held by Detroit Tigers' management. With the 2023 regular season now over, the guys also start looking fully towards next year and what lingering questions remain on the roster. Will we see Austin Meadows or Spencer Turnbull return? Will E-Rod opt out? Has Carson Kelly secured his backup catcher role? Mark and Evan parse the tea leaves to game out these answers and more.
 
Miguel Cabrera reportedly taking part in Venezuelan League HR derby. His last MLB HR Derby was in 2011 because he didn't want to mess with his swing or risk injury. Now that he's retired from playing, he can hack away.

With the retirement of Miguel Cabrera, baseball is about to enter an historically rare stretch here, folks.

Going into 2024, the active leaders in hits, home runs, and wins, are, respectively:

? Joey Votto, 2135 hits (free agent)
? Giancarlo Stanton, 402 HR (NYY)
? Justin Verlander, 257 wins (HOU)

This means that the entire 2024 season will certainly be played without any members of the 3000-hit, 500-homer, or 300-win clubs appearing on an MLB roster.

The last time an entire MLB season was played without any active members of the 3000-hit, 500-homer, or 300-win clubs was 1977.

The last time before that was 1948. Wowch.

Meanwhile, this looks like a streak that could continue well beyond 2024 in MLB, as the classic HOF counting thresholds of 3000/500/300 become more and more elusive.
