Okay..its still early but this is how ridiculous the Jays power numbers are.
In 1997, the Seattle Mariners set the MLB record for homeruns in a season with 264, and keep in mind...1997 was right smack in the middle of the steroid years. So far through 41 games, the Blue Jays have smacked 65 homeruns, on pace over 162 games to tally 257, just 7 short of the all time record and would be good for 2nd on the all time list. They have more homeruns than the Astros, Indians, and Mariners combined and 11 long balls clear of the next closest team, the Red Sox.
You tell me that at the start of the year, I would've slapped you.
