WHY IS IT OKAY TO SAY YOUR PREDICTION IS A 26% INCREASE OVER A GUYS PREVIOUS CAREER HIGH?! HE HAD 41 HR IN THE PREVIOUS 855 PA BEFORE LAST SEASON!

Before last season, he tried to pull everything. Last year, he became a better hitter by going with the outside pitch and driving them to left and left center, making him a tougher out and a better, more complete hitter. He's a different player than he was when he first came up. I think 43 HR might be a tad high, but I could see him doing something like .310/38/125
OTOH, he's also very capable of hitting Schneid's predicted numbers too. He's the reigning MVP after all!!!!!!!!
