Almost zero, no one has done it since 1967 so if he did it this would be one of the top 3 statistical seasons of all time considering how many more teams and players there are now and how much specialty there is in todays game

That's all true but you are totally disregarding the fact that he is either 1 or 2 in all three categories and their is less than half of the season left to play.

Yeah I know, he def has a better chance than anyone has had in the last 30 years, shows what getting off booze can do for you (you should look up his day game stats this year compared to years past they are outrageous), I just think one of the three categories will fall off and he will get caught. I have not looked at his BABIP but if it higher than normal then his BA is bound to fall off, RBI's can be fluky also.

If teams weren't such pussies and the Giants had major league lineup. Barry Bond would have done it like 4-5 times.

Pujols was leading 2 of the top 3 with 3 weeks to play last season.. I doubt Cabrera gets that close.

Howard? Ryan Howard? That would have nothing to do with Cabrera winning the tripple crown.

The Giants cheated all of us by running out that minor league lineup + Bonds for all those years. Especially after Kent left. If they had surrounded him with a decent offense, he literally could have gone for .400 85 HR/200 RBI. He was that in the zone for those 4 years. Juice or not, no one has ever had a 4 year peak like that.

League triple crown winners are pussies.

Real men win major league triple crowns.
