I just keep thinking that this is going to be the career year for Aramis.

It's all about health. If Bradley plays 150 games, not only will he lead the team in homers, he'll probably win the NL MVP.
I'm not holding my breath, but a man can dream.
If Alf is healthy, I could easily see 40 pops. Could this be Aramis's year? Any of those 3 guys would be my pick.
OTOH, if either Lee or Soto even hit 20, I'll be happy (and relieved).
There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance

Me too. I basically just included their names (and Fontenot's) to be nice. 20 would be a great number for each of the three.

But yes, I think you hit the nail on the head with what you said about Bradley.

I like those projections. Can't really argue with any of them.

I think Lee is stuck in the 15-20 HR range for the remainder of his career. He hit 8 through April 2008, and we all know how the rest of the season went. 2005 was an outlier, plain and simple.

I agree. I will be shocked if he hits over 20.
