He's off to a good start. The steroid era was probably the best shot to break it, but even guys like Gaetti and Dean Palmer only hit into the mid 30s. That was also around the time they moved the fences in for a few years. Now they're pushed back out. It's the largest park in the league next from Coors, and there you have the benefit of altitude.
And nowadays, hitting 30+ HR is an accomplishment again. Last year only 20 players in the entire league did it. The year before only 11 did it. |

Luckily he's batting in the #2 spot so his RBI's will be limited.

I can't vote in this poll because, according to bird law, CP poll votes are admissible in court.

I don't see anyone on this roster eclipsing 30. Moose might get close to 30 but getting near 40 just won't happen.
