My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!

WMP has never hit above .270 in a season and he averages a BB every 16 ab's.
Based on a 550 ab season that would slot him at about 35 walks for the year, here's the best HR by a guy (under 27) who hit under .280 and walked 35 or fewer times.
Code:HOMERUNS YEAR HR BB AVG 1 Sammy Sosa 1996 40 34 .273 2 Dave Kingman 1976 37 28 .238 3 Dave Kingman 1975 36 34 .231 4 Tony Armas 1980 35 29 .279 5 Matt Williams 1991 34 33 .268 T6 Cory Snyder 1987 33 31 .236 T6 Matt Williams 1990 33 33 .277 8 Joe Carter 1987 32 27 .264 T9 Richie Sexson 1999 31 34 .255 T9 Joe Pepitone 1966 31 29 .255 T9 Mack Jones 1965 31 29 .262 T12 Raul Mondesi 1998 30 30 .279 T12 Butch Hobson 1977 30 27 .265 T14 Butch Hobson 1979 28 30 .261 T14 Joe Pepitone 1964 28 24 .251 T14 Rondell White 1997 28 31 .270 T17 Torii Hunter 2001 27 29 .261 T17 Jim Presley 1986 27 32 .265 T17 Joe Pepitone 1963 27 23 .271 T20 Ken Keltner 1938 26 33 .276 T20 Gene Freese 1961 26 27 .277 T22 Andre Dawson 1979 25 27 .275 T22 Tony Batista 2001 25 32 .238 T22 Andre Dawson 1978 25 30 .253 25 Jody Davis 1983 24 33 .271

His career HR rate over 550 at bats is 33 homers. So if he improves on that at all, we're looking mid to upper 30's and beyond.
He will strike out too much to get decent pitches to rock into the Ohio River. 31, tops.
25, I think he gets hurt at some point, it's his turn

34 homers,

Your Mom is happy.
He did walk in both his AB's today. That's crazy. I give him 38.
I'd say 30-33, higher if he plays every day, but I am still afraid that Jerry will try to work in a lot of ABs for the 4th OF, if everyone stays healthy. That may cut into WMP's ABs and ability to get comfortable and settle in at the plate.
