I'm gonna go with Travinski. Seems like the kind of guy that could crank out 10 home runs in 10 games if very hot. All of them could easily have 20+ homers end of year.

Not sure. But I love these guys. Would be so cool to see them win back to backs.

Tanks...Jones...Travinski


Jones might lead all in homers, but Tanks will lead in RBI

Tanks hits just about anything and everything hard so Tommy tanks with the highest slugging pct and Jones with the most home runs. Just think catching starts to wear you down as the season goes on.

Those 3 need to be batting 3-4-5

I like them 2-3-5 with a lefty in there at 4. Just something to break up those right handed at bats. Hopefully someone will step up in that hole. CJJ feels the same way, as he’s had a lefty between Travinski and Jones in every game

If Trav and Neal are behind him they gonna have to pitch to him.

Analytics changed that old school way of setting your lineup. The Yankees even bat Aaron Judge 2nd. It’s all based on what kind of pitches you’ll see in a certain spot in the lineup plus how many AB’s you get.

so far this season by Slg%



Last season




If Jones can hit the benders, it could be him.

But it is way too early to draw many conclusions.

Trav is also a good candidate but I think White has still got to be the favorite based on his previous performances throughout the year.

Dark horse, Brady Neal. He showed some power last year and is showing some again this year,

SEC play will obviously dictate the outcome.

Travinski is going to do the least amount of Catching among the 3 catchers....

Jones will probably have the highest slugging percentage, but White will have the most HRs.

Do these 3 players get to 65-75 combined homers this season?

I don’t know. I think he gets pitched around more this year.
Travinski will no doubt get some big hits with Tommy on base, but the pair also make a decent double play probability.

Well it's a good thing Travinski doesn't start every game, he'll DH more than he starts at catcher

This. It'll be Neal and Travinski starting most games with Milazzo coming in late innings as a defensive replacement.

I think a lot of White's power numbers drop this year through no fault of his own. I think he gets less opportunities


Last year you had to pitch to him or DC. This year there are still guys who can hurt you around him, but they aren't (yet) proven to be the murderer's row we had last season.
