Unfortunately for fans of major statistical milestones, the 2015 MLB season will not offer much. Unlike years where several players were closing in on 3,000 hits, 500 home runs or 300 wins, the 2015 season has few major numbers within grasp.
Firstly, a notable mention to Alex Rodriguez. He enters the 2015 season 61 hits shy of 3,000. I am not including him on the list of five because of the way his career has turned out. Rodriguez may end up as the first guy to get booed on his 3,000th career hit.
Rodriguez’s very possible future accomplishment aside, these are five others the fans can look forward to in 2015.
