The Pecan Park Eagle

          With most teams reaching the season mid-point by playing their 81st game of theseason last weekend, its time to take a look at players that are on target for the triple milestones of a .300 batting average, 30 home runs and 100 RBIs and pitchers on target for 20 wins, 200 strikeouts and an ERA below 3.00.

          There weren’t as many as I expected.  Five position players and only one pitcher are on-target.

Chris Davis (Baltimore Orioles) (.332-31-80) – Breakout season.

Miguel Cabrera (Detroit Tigers) (.369-25-82) – Going for his 7th.

Paul Goldschmidt (Arizona D’backs) (.303-20-69) – Did it in minors.

Carlos Beltran (St. Louis Cardinals) (.308-19-50) – Hasn’t done it before.

David Ortiz (Boston Red Sox) (.317-16-57) – Last did it in 2007.

Adam Wainwright (St. Louis Cardinals) (11-5, 114K, 2.22 ERA).
