I'm complaining because I have an entire lineup of tigers who seem to hit 400ft shots.

Here are the rest of the MLB HR stats in this game: I'll just give numbers.
AL

2, 8 , 6 ,2 ,3
7, 3, 14 (DET) , 1 , 6
4, 2, 5, 4

NL
1, 6, 1, 3, 2
4,4,3,3,6,3
3,4,2,3,2

Now, I can understand smoothing effects, and statistics, and everything else.. but come on. How realistic is it for the Detroit Tigers, 4 games, away , to hit 14 home runs , STILL LOSE TWO, and be statistical outliers on the standard distribution.

I love my Tigers, I really do.. but come on. 4 games in and people like Ramon Santiago are hit 400 foot dingers while Austin Jackson is going for 477s and Victor Martinez is clearing the park?

In Detroit, we're used to a little bit of reality with regards to our Tigers. I'll let you know how the game goes after I finish out my pitching rotation , but still... this is pretty surprising stuff for me thus far.
