Where'd all this power come from? Last year it took them like 30 games to hit 7 homers.

They are surprising the hell out of me with the power that they have demonstrated so far this season. That was one of my concerns coming into this season along with the depth in the starting pitching. Hopefully, they are not pulling our chains early in the season and will continue to improve and win.

Couldnt have said it any better. Very nice way to start the year.
