Last two games(one being against David Price):

6/6, double, triple, 3 home runs, 2 walks, and only 3 RBI's(wtf lol). Rays also walked him(4 pitch walk) yesterday when he was just a single short of the cycle.

His stats for the season are also great, over .500 OBP. Looking more and more like last year wasn't a fluke and he's a legit star.

I just don't understand how someone who was in the league for awhile just comes out of nowhere to this level in the non steroid era of baseball. Anyone ever heard him say what changed to make him become superhuman virtually overnight?

Completely changed his swing and was given an opportunity to be a full time player.

it's whatever. he wouldn't be the only one doing it.

does the MLB test for HGH? after the sudden change in performance, it wouldn't surprise me if he's been tested multiple times.

he's clearly the best player in baseball at the moment though. that's all that matters.

No, none of the major sports do it because it has to be done via blood tests and the unions won't let that happen. I think the are implementing it in the minor leagues which would be a first. HGH is incredibly effective especially in aging players but as of now, you can't be busted for it in any sport.

Then I wouldn't be surprised at all if a lot of the big time hitters are using it.

      [Joe Person] Jonathon Brooks had a successful 2nd ACL surgery - Expected to miss all of 2025 Season

      By TD alt · Posted

      He doesn't need to play in 2025. And maybe not 2026 either from what I've read. This is but one peer-reviewed selection:    "A devastating complication of returning to sport following ACL reconstruction (ACLR) is a second ACL injury. Strong evidence now indicates that younger, more active athletes are at particularly high risk for a second ACL injury and this risk is greatest within the first two years following ACLR." https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5226931/     Regarding your first question... "The optimal timing of ACLR is an important clinical decision that affects patient outcomes significantly. Even though there is no consensus in the literature, there are some trends regarding timing of ACLR. Various authors suggest that ACLR be performed at least 3 weeks after injury in order to avoid arthrofibrosis. More important than time alone, objective criteria including perioperative swelling, edema, hyperthermia, and ROM are important indicators of when surgery should be performed." https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4004131/#:~:text=The optimal timing of ACLR is an important clinical decision,in order to avoid arthrofibrosis.

      [The Athletic] Panthers’ offseason to-do list

      Not sure I would be so sure they feel worse than us - their QB was better than Bryce at in the first season, they got DJ Moore, and 2 more high caliber draft picks.  We had to give up basically our entire defense this season indirectly to make that happen and we still have no true #1 WR.  Not saying I would rather have Caleb over Bryce at this point - but I would rather have their team situation and draft picks hands down.

      A lot of people think this draft is weak at QB--I think, after the first five picks of the first round, there are a ton of developmental QBs who could develop into the role--here is the psychology behind it--Bryce becomes the mentor--you can learn as much by teaching others than by being taught.   It also makes him a true leader.  But I think there are a few QB in this draft that might not be ready now, but in 2 years, could be NFL starting QBs--Howard, Rourke, Ewers, Milroe, Dart, etc.  Talk about a cheaper backup and one that could evolve into trade capital--or if Bryce can't find consistency-his replacement.  Round 3 will have some of these qbs--maybe early day 3.
