BOOM! Walk-off HR!
Bring back the Steroid Era!
Wins and Losses are the most overrated stat in both real-life and fantasy baseball.

.255 or .260, 25-28 HR, 90 RBI is the adjusted ceiling. And it's getting lower seemingly by the day
These projections appear to be a tad skewed

Since he hit his first HR on April 25th: 10 HR - 35 RBI - 14 2B in 47 games.
Now that's more like it!

Bruce is at the start of one of his epic hot streaks. Buy in before it's too late.

He's now on pace for another 30 HR season.
This is why he's more suited for roto leagues. Yes, he'll have his hot and cold streaks but at the end of the season the numbers will be there.

Sorry, with all the home runs over the last week, it's hard to figure out exactly which day is best to point out how ridiculous the early season doom and gloomers were. The fact that his numbers look this good even after the 0/4 make the point pretty well.

I was at the game on Monday night. That opposite field shot he hit in the 8th inning was really cool to see off the bat live. I love an opposite field bomb and that was deep to the power alley. That's my favorite kind of bomb.
I saw a stat last night watching the game. In 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 Bruce had 30-33 pull hits and about 30-33 to center and left field (up the middle or the other way) at this point in all those seasons. In 2013, he has 33 pulled hits and 43 or 44 to center and left field. Evidence that he is using the whole field. Even in a lot of his at-bats I realize when he is flying out, he's just missing a ball the other way or he's hitting a line drive right at the left fielder to the track. His first month was really bad but since then he's been excellent in about every way. He needs to stay hot to get to 30 HR, I don't see it but I am hoping for it since I'm a Reds fan.
