If they counted his hits from Japan he has like 15k

4238, but close

25 seasons. dude is one of (if not) the best hitters we will ever witness

Has anyone else ever been an all star, won MVP, Rookie of the Year, silver slugger, and gold glover all in the same year?

I can't think of any.

Fred Lynn had all of that in '75 except Silver Slugger (wasn't a thing until 1980). He was batting over .330 and would've definitely had it had it been around though.

Dustin Pedroia had all of that in his second season, 2008, after winning ROTY the previous one.

Don't think anyone else has done all that in the same season though

I rounded up

1 hit away from (what would be) the MLB record (Combined Japan + USA).
2,977 MLB
1,278 Japan

Pete Rose: 4,256

Seems dumb to include hits in Japan. Might as well include minor league stats for everyone else. /and even that wouldn't be anywhere near the same
