Which Philadelphia Phillies players will reach significant milestones in their careers this season?
Several Philadelphia Phillies hitters are on the cusp of reaching significant offensive milestones in their careers.
Last year, Zack Wheeler reached 1,000 career strikeouts, and he and Aaron Nola each pitched their 1,000th inning. Already this season, Jean Segura notched his 100th career home run.
Here are several Phillies approaching milestones of their own:
Runs scored
Bryce Harper: 120 to 1,000
Harper reaching this milestone this season feels like a stretch, but not impossible given his offensive prowess. He’s scored 30 runs in 38 games so far and would have to score almost one run per game for the remainder of the season in order to reach 1,000.
Didi Gregorius: 7 to 500
Gregorius is on the Injured List at the moment, but when he comes back, this one shouldn’t be too hard to reach.
J.T. Realmuto: 35 to 500
Realmuto is off to a slow start this season, with only 21 runs scored in 38 games. He needs to pick up the pace for himself, but more importantly, for this inconsistent team.
Kyle Schwarber: 104 to 500
Schwarber has scored 30 runs in 41 games. He’ll need to ramp things up to reach this milestone in the remaining 121.
Hits
Jean Segura: 78 to 1,500
Didi Gregorius: 29 to 1,000
J.T. Realmuto: 93 to 1,000
Rhys Hoskins: 21 to 500
Alec Bohm: 11 to 200
Most of these milestones are reachable, but Realmuto and Segura have a long way to go.
Doubles
Bryce Harper: 15 to 300
Jean Segura: 23 to 250
Segura is 23 doubles away from 250. He’s also five triples away from 50, which he might be able to reach this season, as he averages six triples per 162 games.
J.T. Realmuto: 14 to 200
Nick Castellanos: 12 to 300
Home runs
Bryce Harper: 23 to 300
Nick Castellanos: 27 to 200
Kyle Schwarber: 37 to 200
Barring unforeseen circumstances, Harper is absolutely reaching 300 this season. He’s homered 10 times in 38 games so far.
RBI
Jean Segura: 24 to 500
J.T. Realmuto: 58 to 500
Alec Bohm: 13 to 100
All of these milestones are absolutely attainable.
