JT Realmuto the second 20/20 catcher in MLB history.  The first was Pudge in 1999.  He was athletic, but I don't remember him ever being a 20 steal guy
I suppose Biggio could have been on the list had he stayed at catcher

had 20 or more HRs 8 times and 20 or more stolen bases 9 times in his career

more stolen bases than HRs

but, only 20-20 3 seasons

Dale Murphy came up as a catcher and had some speed.  He had throwing issues....

Dodgers have 109 wins with 5 to play. 
Thanks to baseball's postseason setup, I have absolutely NO confidence they'll win the WS. 
already making excuses

nothing wrong with playoff setup

If the Dodgers are good enough they win if not then theres always next year
They won't let me give blood anymore. The burnt orange color scares the hell out of the doctors.

May be an image of 3 people and text that says 'Aaron Judge has struck out 167 times so far this season... Tony Gwynn struck out 167 times in the 90s. Unbelievable stat PADRES 19'

I'll be happy when ESPN stops making us watch every time Judge comes to bat

Like last year, the Braves have come on ultra strong since June 1.  The hottest team can win in the playoffs obviously.  Now, they get a week of rest, one more game to play the younger guys and then rest, which could mean rust.

what is the big deal with that anyway? why should anyone even care. get back to us when he breaks Barry Bonds record of 73. til then, no one should even give a little bit of a fk.
