I know, right? I'm sure you're rolling your eyes, but he has a chance to hit some significant milestones.
Hits: He has 2099 hits right now, and he turns 35 in August. He had 179 and 178 hits the last two seasons. He will probably have close to 2200 at the end of the season. If he averages 160 hits the next 5 seasons, he will be on the doorstep of 3000. He is also a career .296 hitter and is hitting .305 this year.
Stolen Bases: He has 575 now, and 21 so far this year. If he averages a little over 20 for the next 5 years, he will reach 700. There are only 10 players in the history of the game to reach 700.
Now, I don't think of him as being a Hall of Fame type player at all, but the HOF absolutely LOVES 3000 hits. If he hits 3000, you might find yourself in Cooperstown one day in front of the Juan Pierre plaque. I have no idea which team would be on his cap, as the most games he has played for one team is Florida with 486 (162 x 3 = every game for three seasons).
