	40-40 club - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Becoming a member of the 40-40 club is one of the most elusive achievements in modern American sports, as players who possess either the power to hit 40 home runs or the speed to steal 40 bases in a season are a rarity in and of themselves.
		The 40-40 club is a term coined by sportswriters to distinguish Major League Baseball players who accumulate a total of both 40 home runs and 40 stolen bases in a single season.
		This remains true even as statistical trends change in baseball; stolen base totals in the 1980s were unusually high, but very few players reached 40 home runs, and home run totals were extremely high in the late 1990s, but stolen bases became increasingly rare as the steal became a much more sparingly used tactic.

		He’s capable of reaching the 40-40 club with one good game, so the odds are still greatly in his favor that he’ll join Jose Canseco, Barry Bonds and Alex Rodriguez.
