Long homeruns...great website

If you want to check out the longest HR's hit this year, go to:

http://www.hittrackeronline.com/top_true_distance.php

There have been 13 HR's hit this year over 465 feet. Here they are and who hit them:

Mark Reynolds 481 ft
Raul Ibanez 477
Joey Votta 473
Adam Dunn 473
Josh Hamilton 471
Adrien Gonzalez 471
Chris Ianetta 471
Adam Dunn 469
Adam Dunn 467
Seth Smith 467
Nelson Cruz 467
Carlos Pena 466
Albert Pujols 465

Last night "The Sheriff" hit another HR, for number 34 on the season and he is now just 2 behind Albert Pujols on the year. While I was checking out Reynolds stats, I also realized he has stolen 20 bases. He has done all this and still didn't make the all-star game. What must a guy do to make the roster?

Looks like Adam Dunn is the big bopper this year. HE takes up three of the top 13 HR's on the year. Imagine where the Nat's would be without Dunn and Zimmerman!!!

Dunn is only 29 years old and has hit 307 career HR. Looks like we will have another 500+ HR guy joining the select group over the next 5-6 years.

I am focusing on the hitters right now because all of the 300 win club potential members are not putting up any W's. Right now it seems like the offense is better than the pitching right now. Of course one game last night was the exception. Red Sox vs. Yankees, 15 inning classic, read about it in my next blog.
