He altered his swing timing in August last year because Cito noticed that he was popping a bunch of pitches back, so he got him to start his swing a bit earlier in the pitcher's delivery. He was brutal in August but then hit 10 HR's in September, tore it up in winter ball, and has 25 already this year.

If he signed for Overbay money on a 3 year contract, I wouldn't be opposed to that (7 million per)
