Yes, it’s true, Yangervis Solarte is leading the Blue Jays in home runs. Not Justin Smoak, not Grandy, but Solarte. With seven dingers on the year, Solarte is three ahead of his teammates Aledmys Diaz, Teoscar Hernandez, Kevin Pillar, and Smoak, all of whom have four. Even more impressive is that vast majority of his homers are moonshots. He constantly arcs bombs that just explode off his bat. Not to mention his bat drops, which are pretty sweet in themselves.
It’s awesome that Solarte has provided the Jays with so much power.
