37th of the season. He's going to get 50 right?
>>77524968
50 is the usual number of HRs to lead the league with. Guys like Davis, Bautista and now Judge do it all the time to go along with their .250 average with 200 strikeouts.
dingers are good retard

>le overpaid dinger man
>>77525281
Doubt Judge will get 50. He'll end up around 44-47.
>le walk, strikeout and hit more dingers than singles man
Derby Destroyer
Four Bagger with Swagger
Stanton of Swat
King of Ding
South Beach Smasher
Derby Darling
Mike Drop
yeah unless he does a bunch of coke and takes his speedboat out one night
Are dingers really that important? I see guys like Adam Dunn and wondered how he stayed in the league so long. Complete defensive liability and strikeout machine. But hit the occasional dinger and get paid big money.

Personally, I would prefer a guy who bats .280 with 25 HRs then a guy who hits .240 with 50 HRs. It's such a momentum killer to have these big guys come to bat, crowd cheering with the bases loaded etc, and strikeout on slider, slider, fastball cause they just aim for the HR.

>Are dingers really that important
Yes you idiot. A single HR is worth approximately that of 2.5 singles.
Adam Dunn also walked a shitload and got on base more often than a singles slapping shit.

yes

>I'd rather have a guy get a regular hit 4% more often than a guy hit a HR twice as often
Enjoy being retarded I guess

It truly depends on the team. The Giants won 3 World Series the past 7 years and they notoriously don't hit many homeruns. But they had timely hits and played small ball well with genius coaching. If you have 5-6 guys in your lineup that can crush 20+ dingers a year then yeah brute force will get you there. But it's all about playing to your own strengths. Dingers are not the end all be all.

>The Jints won because of their hitting
Good joke. Great pitching and fluke magic is the only reason they won. Posey and Sandoval are the only two position players on any of those teams that weren't absolute shit.
