a Hot Take

[Handy Johnson]

This is hardly going out on a limb, but I'm making a "Call" right now. Jim Palmer will break Pike's single game scoring record some time next season. Granted, it won't be easy since he's not a ballhog on a bad team ala' Bo Spencer. But, his ability to get to the line and knock down foul shots will put him over the top. There, you heard it here 1st.

I would take that bet in a heartbeat.

What see the chances Palmer comes back?

What are the chances he has a better year?

What are the chances teams key on him, especially if there is attrition of other scorers.

You might be right but I think it is a hot take because I would bet against it.

Wait, didn't Jim Palmer pitch for the Orioles?

Fun Baseball Palmer fact of the day: He was known as Jim Wiesen until age 9 when he took his stepfather, Max Palmer's name.

Doesn't have the same ring to it Jimmy...hey Jimmy, do you remember who the Oriole reliever nicknamed Fullpack was?

I agree, Jim "Pancakes" Wiesen does not have the same panache. However, James "Poutine" Palmer might work if he dines with Jordy on occasion.

This year. At the Garden. Against Ohio State.
