The Home Run 2

[NYY #23]

5 Year Recalc:



The first player to play a game as a designated hitter, Ron Bloomberg became a member of the 400 club this season. Bloomberg hit just 52 home runs in real life.



Darrel Porter joined the 300 club this season, and now has 309 home runs at the age of 32.



Another 32 year old joined the 300 club this season as well when Fred Lynn accomplished the feat. Lynn now has 307 career home runs.



Don Baylor also joined the 300 club, but with 307 home runs at the age of 35 it's unlikely he'll reach 400.

5 Year Recalc:

Carlos Ponce also joined the 400 club this season. Ponce had just 66 career at bats in the majors in 1985.

Three players hit their 300th career home run this season.

Leading the way was Leonard Williams who finished with 319 home runs.

31 year old Pat O'Connell finished with 316 homers.

5 Year Recalc:



Real life 400 club member Darrel Evans had success for the first time when he hit his 400th homer. Evans hit 414 home runs in real life and now has 409 home runs.



Reggie Jackson passed 700 home runs for his career. Jackson is now 40 years old, so I expect the 700 level is as high as Reggie will go.



Eric Davis debuted on the watch list after leading the league with 55 home runs. Davis now has 133 home runs at the age of 24

Five players reached 300 career home runs this year:



Real life 400 club member Eddie Murray now has 333 home runs at the age of 30. Fellow 400 club member Dave Winfield is 35 and finished with 311 home runs. Andre Dawson is also a real life 400 club member and finished with 303 home runs at the age of 32.

Jim Rice is 33 years old and now has 308 home runs. Finally, Dale Murphy ended the year with 302 home runs and is now 30 years old.



Mike Schmidt retired with 525 career home runs, less than the 548 he hit in real life. Johnny Bench retired with 463 homers. Bench hit 389 in real life. Rick Monday called it quits with 409 career home runs.

Greg Luzinski came up short after retiring with 344 home runs.

5 Year Recalc:
Each year I try to go through the league leaders, and also review the players who hit 300 career home runs for players to include. Most of the time everyone with at least 300 home runs is added, but every once in a while someone will slip through the cracks.



This year that was Richie Hebner, who joined the 400 home run club and finished the year with 416 homers. Hebner hit 203 home runs in real life.



Dave Kingman joined the 500 club this season, and retired following the season with 512 home runs. Kingman hit 442 homers in real life.



Another real life 400 club member, Darrel Evans, retired with 435 home runs. Evans hit 414 home runs in real life.



Ken Phelps hit 47 home runs this year which was good for third in the league and passed 300 career home runs. At 33 years old Phelps finished the season with 318 homers.

After completely missing Richie Hebner I took a look for any others that were currently off my radar, which led to Graig Nettles. Nettles hit 390 home runs in real life, and finished the season at the age of 43 with 384 home runs. While Nettles needs just 16 home runs it will still be tough for him based on his age.

Don Baylor failed to join the 400 club, retiring with 337 home runs.

Random Debut:

Louis Santop also passed 500 career homers but is in a much different position than Davis. Santop is just 27 years old and finished the year with 520 homers and should hit many more.



Bullet Rogan finished second with 69 home runs and moved passed 300 career home runs at the age of 23. Rogan finished second to Mule Suttles, who hit 82 home runs as home runs as the power totals at the very top continue to explode.



John Kerins also moved past 300 career home runs. Kerins was another player from the 1800's and at 28 years old is in good position to reach 400 home runs and advance to the next round. 34 year old Brad Hawpe also hit home run number 300 of his career.



Hirokazu Kinju made his debut on the watch list with 371 career homers at the age of 36 after checking the watch list.

Moose Clabaugh retired from baseball with 303 home runs.

Mule Suttles was one of two players to reach 600 career home runs this season, joining Yancy Davis. Both players are young, continue to appear on the season leaders, and should have quite a bit of life left in them

Tommy Gregg made his debut on the watch list this season when he hit 32 home runs. Gregg now has 81 home runs at the age of 21.
