And all those championships with the angels

WARNING: I have a deep-seated desire for others to love the Star Wars franchise as much as I do, in exactly the way I do, and get snippy and sensitive and passive-aggressive when they don't.

7 total homeruns in the first 4 months, now 8 and 6 in the last 2. Dude is definitely juicing. He knows he is at the end of his career and has to get one more big milestone.

I don't think the MLB intervenes, they just look the other way...

24 HR's in about 300 ABs, so basically a 48+ HR pace. He only hit more than 48 HR's once in his career…. when he was 26 years old. The last time he hit more than 24 HRs (31), he was 36 and it took him 596 ABs to do it.

Not saying he juiced, but to quote Lt Aldo Raine from Inglorious Basterds, "we got a word for that kinda odd in English. It's called suspicious."
