Milestone Watch

[Washington9]

There are a number of players looking to reach various milestones this season.

Baltimore Monarchs pitcher Hank Daniels will be looking to notch his 200th career victory next time out. Barring a significant uptick in his strikeout numbers, however, Daniels will have to wait until early next season to record his 3,000th strikeout. The 37-year-old is 119 shy of the mark. With his next win, Daniels will become the tenth player in league history to record 200 victories. He is currently 10th all-time in strikeouts with 2,881.

California Crusaders catcher Billy Wilson is knocking on the door of the all time home run mark. He needs just four more home runs to become only the second player in league history to club 600 in his career, and is 20 shy of tying all-time leader Henry Jones with 616.
Long Chamberlain 's power numbers are strong in AAA Newark, but the 33-year-old's .237 average there has kept him out of the big leagues with the Greenville Moonshiners. He's hoping to catch on with the big club soon, however, and try to club his way to the 600 home run club with 592.

Las Vegas Hustlers catcher Riley Hinson will need increased playing time if he is going to collect his 2,000th hit this year as he need 88 more.

Las Vegas Hustlers closer Marty PowersMarty Powers may reach a milestone this week as he needs just three more appearances for 1,000 in his career. Powers ranks 14th all time in appearances, and is on pace to pass three retired pitchers in the all time list this season.

Louisville Sluggers rightfielder Robert Nolan needs 48 hits for 2,000 in his career, and is on a pace to do so.

Valencia Stars rightfielder Gary Barr needs just three home runs to join the 400 home run club.

Vancouver Mounties firstbaseman Roach Kidd is just seven runs scored shy of 1,000 in his career, while Hawaii Tropics backup outfielder Tucker York has an outside shot of reaching that same plateau this year, sitting 26 runs short of the mark coming out of the All Star break.

Though he is no longer a regular closer, Stars reliever Brian FisherBrian Fisher has a chance to record his 350th save if he can pick up four more saves this season. He is currently tenth all time in saves.

Wilson will make it unless he suddenly decides to retire on me.

There is almost no chance Chamberlain gets to 600 HR, not with the Moonshiners, at least (sorry, Rahn)
