Yankees Milestones to Watch For

From ESPN.com:

Jason Giambi: needs 19 home runs for 300.
Derek Jeter: needs 17 doubles for 300 and seven RBI for 700.
Randy Johnson: needs 39 strikeouts to join Nolan Ryan and Roger Clemens as the only players with 4,200 all-time and four wins for 250.
Carl Pavano: needs 62.1 innings pitched for 1,000.
Jorge Posada: needs 90 hits for 1,000.
Paul Quantrill: needs nine appearances for 800.
Mariano Rivera: needs five saves to tie Rollie Fingers (341) for 7th all-time.
Alex Rodriguez: needs 19 homers for 400 and one HR as a shortstop to tie Cal Ripken Jr.’s record for most homers as a shortstop (345).
Gary Sheffield: needs 11 homers to tie Billy Williams (426) for 34th all-time and 14 doubles for 400.
Joe Torre: needs a 100-win season to become the first manager if history to lead his team to 100 wins for four straight years, breaking a tie with Bobby Cox (Atlanta, 1997-99), Connie Mack (Philadelphia 1929-31), Billy Southworth (St. Louis, 1942-44) and Earl Weaver (Baltimore, 1969-71).
Bernie Williams: needs 17 walks for 1,000.

Bolded the ones I find to be cool.

A-Rod getting 400 home runs… insane. He’ll turn 30 in July.

    Any guesses on how many HRs A-Rod will hit this year?

    My guess is 40.

    I’ll go with 48. :)
