Maybe not this year but when they move into that new stadium and out of the dead air at Landshark/Joe Roby/Pro player stadium (or whatever they are calling it now). I think he will have a legit shot at 50.

I would imagine he will fill some seats, especially with the power he has at such a young age...chicks dig the longball.abeabe said:

His splits were crazy last season:Weatherwarrior said:
Home: .182/.272/.327 (7HR/159AB)
Away: .318/.369/.647 (15HR/201AB)

Well to put a cap at 30 HRs is silly. He had 22 HRs in half a season....I say low 30s. Maybe he will eventually get to 40 HRs but for now I see him as a low-mid 30 HR guy.hofautos said:scotty21690 said:
Of course, he only had 100 games.
2:1 odds he's closer to 30 than 50 dingers
Besides, i just like throwing in a wrench along with all the hoopla...
so you don't think my projection is so far off.scotty21690 said:Well to put a cap at 30 HRs is silly. He had 22 HRs in half a season....I say low 30s. Maybe he will eventually get to 40 HRs but for now I see him as a low-mid 30 HR guy.hofautos said:scotty21690 said:

He also was closer to 2/3 season than half a season.
I also do think pitchers will pitch more careful around him...i do believe 30 is realistic.

AB wise, he was closer to a half. (~600AB=full season)
And I am saying while I don't tihnk he will hit 50, he will def hit 30+. At least 30. Not 30 max.

I think for this season it will depend on who is batting behind him. If he is in front of Hanley he gets a ton of pitches to hit. If he hits in front of Logan Morrison it will just depend on how LoMo is doing. If morrison is hot the Stanton could see alot of fastballs. And as scotty said his splits were crazy on the road I wouldn't be suprised if he 25 bombs in road games this year. If he can do that on the road then pull 15 down at home he'll have 40 and that is a helluva season. But when they get in the new ballpark Watch out its a dome his numbers could get silly.

He had 396AB or 2/3 ab as well.
396 is a lot closer to 400 than 300??
30max is a LOT less of a stretch than 50...i am guessing 30.

Yeah, bad math for me...been a long day.
And it was 359 ABS, not 396.
30+ easily, I will make a friendly bet on that one.

ABs are not the same as PA's.

I have to learn to follow the columns better...your math is bad as my eyes...anyway, now that i see it is 359AB, i will give him 35HR (loL)scotty21690 said:Yeah, bad math for me...been a long day.

I will still take Longoria.
I dont see it unless he keeps the k's down 50 is a pipe dream.

If we try to take too much from last year's stats we will have to conclude that he can't hit lefties
.218 and only 3 HRs in 87 at bats.

LOW?
Try realistic..most will guess 30-35, 50 is ridiculous.
And not voting poor to keep prices down...the prices are inflated and I'm not buying...eveyone knows prices go down after the hoopla has faded...i don't buy any players until they have been in the majors for 5+ years, I am just trying to keep it real.

He did hit 43 in 588 AB's last year, but I voted not a chance.
He won't do it, but the hobby needs another star. I'm hoping for .285, 35, 100 and I only own a 2010 Topps Chrome Green Refractor "MLB RC"...
