2019 saw an unprecedented amount of homers hit. The previous record set only 2 years earlier was completely shattered. The reason given for this boom was that the ball had less drag this year, or in short, was "juiced." This casued the difference in the home run explosion from 2017-2019 to the steroid era was the rise of the middle class of home run hitters. We saw players who had previous career highs in the 10s hitting over 30. Luckily, we have the power of Statcast data to sort through the glut of home run hitters and see who was getting the most out of the "juiced ball."
Comment a player and I will tell you where they ranked on the list!

@nomorefielders 2 месяца назад

Nunez was actually 50th out of 80 players. While it is true he never truly reached his power potential, most of that was due to swing and miss issues and not a lack of what we in the business refer to as oomph. He actually posted a respectable Barrel Rate and his WOBA difference actually ranked better than Josh Donaldson and Manny Machado's.

the reason the cubs have such an easier time hitting homers is because of their field. the length of the outfield is similar to a high school field. the maximum point at center field is a maximum of 400 feet and a foot or two less of you land it in the basket. (from a cubs fan btw)

Atuve is an interesting choice since he once again hit 31 HRs in 2021, 28 in 2022, and was on pace for 30 in 2023 if not for the injuries. Yuli on the other hand 100% had a season for the ages in 2019.

@bigmanballsassnuts3337 25 дней назад

altuve wasn't an interesting choice it makes sense. before 2019 he had a contact heavy approach but with the knowledge that the balls were juiced he decided to switch it up to battle age. since 2019 he's been around 30 every year as a result. as stated in the video he's the only juiced ball merchant that retained his pop.

@kami_in_the_skye 2 месяца назад

30 would still probably be a somewhat significant outlier, but the playing time just isn't there to really know for sure. The only other time he came within 100 plate appearances of 2019 he hit 18, which is probably somewhere in the 20-22 range if you extrapolate it out the rest of the way. So it's reasonable to assume that would be his regular output. But there's no way to be certain without actually seeing 550 reps every year. Edit: I'm a dumbass, but I think I was able to figure out how to look up a couple of the metrics used in this? If I did them correctly, barring a major dropoff after 10, they didn't seem all that close to top-10 material. I am curious to know where he ranked now though, since nothing seemed *excessively* outta line (but again, actively futzing with data myself is vanishingly rare, so I might be doing it completely wrong). 🤔

Hunter Dozier is another player that should be on this list (hit 25 Home Runs that season and has fallen off ever since)
