This guy is crazy with bat speed and now has 42 HR.....NL might have a triple crown....the AL will not!....but they might have a guy lead the league in HR by double digits

Definitely some interesting trends in his career. He could end up with 50 homers this year, despite just having 59 career home runs coming in to this year. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and just say he is putting it all together this year.

I have to admit, I've been a hater all season. I kept expecting him to drop off.

I hate him, especially after his two huge pimp jobs on HR's on Monday night. I was so happy Ivan Nova decided to buzz his tower. What a buffoon

The part I like the most about his success this year is how people use the fact he was a FORMER Pirate as one more reason why the team sucks, as they never keep anyone that's good. A few years back, those same people were essentially saying that his presence in the starting line-up was part of the problem for the Pirates, as his production was very sub-par for a corner outfielder.

Luis Gonzalez was Brady Anderson 2.0

Luis Gonzalez was an All Star multiple times after his big year, Brady never had another good year after that.
He benefits a lot from playing in 2 homer happy parks in 90 games of the season (Rogers Centre and Yankee Stadium). He will likely win the home run title in the AL barring a drop and Cabrera going nuts in September.

No way. Gonzo was a very solid player before and after that year. Yes, he blew up with his 57 bombs and never was close to that total again. But he was over 30 before that and 20 many other times. Plus he was a good hitter. Career avg around .280 and I believe he led the league in hits on year (cant recall if it was before or after the big year).

laley...I almost always agree with you...but before 1999 Logo was a .265 hitter with 15 HR power....1999-2001 he averaged 40 Hr and hit about .330
Logo was just the player Anderson was....Anderson was pretty good in 1992.....but insane in 1996
Both cheated....Lugo gets less criticism than any user

No, he he needs to save these Home Runs for the following next couple weeks. These HR's don't count for me during my 1st Round BYE in my fantasy league lol
