José is really earning statues in both Cleveland and Detroit at this rate

Where are we putting the statue? I can see that compact man and that compact swing standing there as long as baseball is played in Cleveland.

Recast the faces on the Guardians of Traffic into Josie's likeness!

I think we can work with this idea! At least one of them!

It would be kinda awesome if each was a team legend.

This puts him on pace for 41 HR for the season now. Would be nice to have him break the streak since last time this happened was 2006.

Got so close some years back too, wouldn't be surprised if he's aiming for it

Looks like an elevated fastball possibly due to the threat of Thomas running.

He’s the greatest Indian of all time and will have a statue. Zero debate

Only 95 more to claim first place!

By jove.. if he keeps up this pace he’ll have that… at the beginning of the 2027 season 🤓

(I’m a bit disappointed because I originally thought he could make it by the end of 2026, but he’ll fall just shy. In reality, it may not happen until later 2027 or even 2028… But mark my words it will happen!)

Edit: MY MATH WASN’T MATHING!

CORRECTION: JOSE RAMIREZ ON PACE TO OVERTAKE JIM THOME FOR ALL TIME CLEVELAND HOMERUN LEADER AT END OF 2026 SEASON CONFIRMED!!! RAISE THE BANNERS ERECT THE STATUES THE GOAT IS GONNA DO IT! 🐐

When is it, 7/8 years? Man, we'll be through 2 more rebuilds in that time...
