In case you didn’t see the cover of any newspaper in the New York-metro area, all of Gary Sanchez, Aaron Judge, and Giancarlo Stanton homered against the Rays on Wednesday. It was something a lot of fans have fantasized about since Stanton came over from the Marlins: with those three players bunched together in the lineup, one could envision 140 home runs in this offensive environment.
Well, about that offensive environment. While 2017 yielded the most home runs in a single season with 412 (!) home runs, 2018 looks to continue that trend.
