Anyone can hit 5 homers in 5 games.    But 5 in 4 games?   That’s incredible.   

7 minute abs.....

 

 

So since way back in 2019 there have been 14 instances of a player hitting more homers than games for four or more games.  Twice last year players hit six homers in four games.  Luke Voit and Aaron Judgt had six homers in five games this year.  Nelson Cruz totally legally hit seven in five last year at the age of 73.

Thanks, Drungo, I knew you’d be the one to answer this question.   It’s a little more common than I thought, not drastically so.    I’d have to think about it, but I’d still say that less than 10% of players who get into a major league game ever do this.

It has to be way less than that.  There have been something like 20,000 major leaguers.  I'd guess a few hundred have ever done this, as it's more common lately, and there are duplicates.

Stewart had his 6th home run in 6 games last night.    Most of them have been crushed down the RF line.

“I was able to clear my head (in Bowie) and I’m mentally in a better place, not trying to do too much and staying within myself and trusting the work that I’ve put in during the offseason and while I was down there in Bowie,” Stewart said. “It was kind of a reset for me, and just getting an opportunity now and going out there and trying to do the best I can.

“I’ve had times where I’ve been locked in. When I earned my promotion last year I was pretty locked in then, as well, but as far as the home runs, never really as many as it’s been, honestly. And that’s the work we were able to put in at Bowie, understanding my swing and also during the offseason not trying to do too much but letting my body generate the power as opposed to over-swinging.”

For some reason Adam Duvall, ATL,  is not shown.  In 8 games from 9/2 - 9/9/20 he hit 8 dingers (two 3 HR games on 9/2 and 9 and solos on 9/5 and 7!). Also, 5 in 5 games from 9/5 - 9.  @Frobby

Who is the hitting coach down at the alternate site? Did Davis spend any time there during his rehab?

The hopeful thing about this list for DJ and for us is that most all of these guys have had pretty daggone good careers...

Because it was not in consecutive games.  I couldn't figure out how to run a query unless it was a consecutive streak.  So if someone hit three homers today, none tomorrow, three next day, and two in each of the next two... wouldn't show up.

They also have the advantage of all (or nearly) being active players.  Dozens or hundreds of players have done this prior to '19 and I'm sure there's some really random players in there. 

Remember the Jeff Manto streak in '95, when he had five homers in three games for the Orioles?  Had 31 in his MLB career.

As encouraging as this hot streak is, I'm curious to see how he rebounds if he hits a cold streak.  I'm glad to see his comments in regards to the things he was able to work on mentally in Bowie and some tweaks to his approach.  I am wondering if that stays true for him on his next 2-25 stretch.

 

 

Sure.    I think Stewart’s career major league numbers are pretty indicative of who he is, except his power numbers are inflated.   The .243 BA and .347 OBP make sense and compare to .255/.358 in the minors

    • Am I crazy for thinking Burnes isn't going to sniff Cole's deal?  I'm thinking like 7/260-280.  I don't think he's going to sniff Cole's deal.  For starters i dont think hes as good a pitcher as Cole was at the time of his signing.  Also, the Yankees aren't going to be in the bidding so that leaves the Mets, Giants, Nats, Orioles as teams that can afford him.  The Sox could too, but they're on the fringe of contention and might opt to develop more with the Yankees and Orioles solidly ahead of them in division.  Only the Mets from that list really seem like teams that would go over 300m for a pitcher, but they will be pressed for money because of the luxury tax.
    • Agree a strong RHP bullpen arm that misses bats would be good to add. Looking at Spotrac I don’t see who it would be. Dominguez could certainly be someone that could fill this role. 
    • Definitely leave the flag up. 
    • It looks like I misread your post as being about last offseason instead of the 2017-2018 offseason.  My mistake, but does that in any way affect my overall point - you know the part that I made explicit and you left out of your response - that all the old, reflexive Angelosian nonsense no longer automatically applies? I'm unclear on what you're driving at, especially if I have to go back to the 2017-2018 offseason when Peter Angelos might still have been giving input on running the team.  I think it's a stretch to try to draw parallels to those days, or even the John Angelos years, to David Rubenstein potential as an owner.
    • Irsay stealing the Colts in a midnight sneak away is in my top five depressing B-More moments, as well as the dreaded We Are Family Pirates in the ‘79 series. Otherwise, it’s a good bad list.
    • I forgot the name of the movie, but Jimmy Fallon was playing a BoSox superfan (tough role for an NY kid) and it was during the era of the ‘curse’ (right at the end of it actually) — a kid he was coaching asked, “What have the Red Sox ever done for you?” His character didn’t have an answer. But it made me think. The movie was out during the 14-years of losing seasons. I asked myself the same question about whether a lifetime of fandom was worth it. For me, outside of my family - 15 generations or more on the Eastern Shore - the O’s are also part of my DNA.  Win, lose, lose horribly, lose ugly, bad ownership, they just can’t shake me. All that said, I totally understand the frustration. It will take me a little longer to heal from this ugly exit to 2024.
    • In the market and $$$ for SP = Mets, Cubs, BOS, WAS and SFG (depending on Snell opt-out).  That’s enough chairs when music stops for Burnes and Fried to cash in, and still ample for second tier Eovaldi, Manea, Kikuchi, Flaherty.
