How many HRs you think he will hit? I'm hopin for 20-30, if he played like last year.

Im guessing 23-27. Its going to take some time for his power to really develop. More important than his HRs; I want him to hit around 290-300 and hit the ball into the gaps.

yea, more importantly, i want him 2 establish his gap power and stolen bases, then go for the HRs.

It's pretty hard to hit .300 and 30 homeruns. Only 15 players did it last year, although some hovered around those statistics. Just saying, it's pretty hard.
If you can get .275 out of him, it wouldn't be bad for a second year.

i just want him to hit .300. I can expect more power from him in a couple more years. vice versa cont be that bad either.

In 69 games last year he had 14 HRs. That is on a pace for 32 HRs for 155 games. I expect him to play 155 games, and get about 30 hrs. He was on pace last season, why not this coming season?

A few reasons; like it usually takes young players some time to adjust to the schedule length and now pitchers arent seeing him hit for the 1st time so they'll have a better idea on how to pitch him.
If you want to go by what players were "on pace for" Todd Hollandsworth would have had a spectacular season.

yeah and we all though reyes was gonna hit .330 last year. Dont be too upset if wright doesnt have it all this year, but he will get everything on as he develops.
ill predict a .280 - 25 - 80 for him.
