20 Home Runs

What's the record for most 20 HR guys on a single Mets team? We have a legitimate shot to have 7 guys reach that mark this year.

actually, everybody in the lineup has 20hr power. even our pitchers!

I was curious and have some time on my hands this morning, so I ground this one out by going through the seasons on bbref and found 1987 (Carter, HoJo, McReynolds, Strawberry) and 2000 (Ventura, Fonz, Zeile, Piazza) tied with 4. I didn't bother clicking on teams earlier than 1980, except for a couple of mid-70s teams and the 1969 team, since even the good Met teams back then didn't do much slugging.

'06 (Beltran, Reyes, Wright, Valentin, Delgado)?

Likelihood of hitting 20: Cespedes 90% Duda 75% Granderson 68% Conforto 63% Walker 61% Wright 58% d'Arnaud 41% Cabrera 26% Flores 19% De Aza 9% Lagares 7% Plawecki 2% Campbell 1% Bernadina 1%

In other NYM HR news: - Neil Walker's next HR will be the 100th of his career. There's quite a little log-jam around that number on the roster right now: Walker = 99; Cabrera = 102; Duda = 103; Cespedes = 110, although obviously only Duda hit them all as a Met. - David is now 15 HRs short of tying Straw for the NYM career record (252). The partial seasons he's had over the last few years have pushed him getting the record past where it could have been, but now 17 for the season certainly seems doable.

Giving this thread a bump. With 22 games left to play, four more KABOOMs from Wilmer and one more from Cabrera would give the Mets their first ever season with 5 players with 20 or more.

Edgy MD Sep 08 2016 01:00 AM Re: 20 Home Runs

I'm counting on 19 more from Colón.

Not a bad bet, as he'll probably play until the seas run red and the Horsemen ride.
