Chances we can get to 125 home runs this year?

Got exactly 100 last year...could we get to the 125 mark this year? Wish we still had the big bats to break 188 
12

I don't know........will be tough without Matt Clark.

Matt Clark is a big loss in that department

I think we will be more around 85-90.

Yea I think we will do it

we have a shot because the power numbers up and down the roster have improved. We may not have a "Clark" with a ton of hrs but we should have several in the teens. I am looking for Gibbs to have a breakout year with alot of HRS also for Ochinko to step up this year along with Dean doing what Dean does. Also look for Landry to be more comfortable this season.
Everything is lining up right...

thats a huge increase especially when you lost your best homerun hitter. i say no way we get to that mark.

Don't see it happening.

doubters are good. I have always liked for people to say that you cant do it.
Out to proove alot of people wrong.

Not gonna happen. Assuming about 70 games if we get to Omaha, thats 1.78 per game.

The new park might be a dead ballpark also. The old box was a launching pad.

I havent heard much talk about it, but is the New Box supposed to be a launching pad like its predecessor? I mean they both are facing the same direction so the wind and everything should be the same right?

Should be the same but you never know. I have played on a ton of parks and some feel different than others even with the same dimensions.

I think 100 is doable again. Gibbs should see a power spike and I think removing Hollander from the lineup will lead to more homers.
clark will be tough to replace, but I do think we'll have more balanced power from top to bottom in the order. Maybe we'll go back to having every starter hit 10 homers.

They should have installed huge fans at the top of the grandstand, but only turn them on when we are batting.

Matt Clark gone weakens it a little. But I expect LeMahieu and Gibbs to have a very strong year, homerun-wise, at the plate. I say we're near last year's total.

But then the new box will never be finished in time

Read somewhere that the outfield walls were like 2 feet higher. That along with losing the nation's hr leader from last year is gonna hurt your chance for hitting 125. But. I'm hoping.
