Default Re: How does 2007 stack up in terms of individual MLB milestones?

MikeyPatriot,

I am not being a nit and there isn't anything to disagree with. 500 HR's, All-time HR record, 300 wins etc. are "milestones" accomplished over the course of a career.

No-hitters, perfect games, the cycle (more rare than no-hitters)--are all incredibly difficult but it is something that comes together for one game...not something accumulated over the course of an entire career.

They are very different from each other. This is also why you may not recognize every name that has thrown a no-hitters but everyone that reaches milestones are recognizable.

Verlander reached the milestone of 1 no-hitter.
