8. Adam Dunn-15
9. Carlos Quentin-15
10. Alfonso Soriano-14

Good Luck!!


1-8: agreee
9. Albert Pujols
10. Soriano


You agree with my list except Quentin, so it will be him vs. Pujols. Here is one big statistic, Quentin 15 homers, pujols 14 homers. Another stat, Pujols has 207 ab, Quentin has 199. So from those two stats we can see Quentin has more homers in less at bats than pujols. So this year Quentin is obviously the better homer hitter. Enough said.


Well, so Quentin does that. Pujols is a better hitter and should wind up getting more homeruns. Even though Quientin did this Pujols will still do better.


In your arguement you say that Pujols is the better hitter, that may be the case but this throwdownis called TOP 10 HOMER RUN HITTERS NOT TOP 10 HITTERS. Right now Quetin is mashing homers at a better rate than Pujols, there is nothimg to suggest this is going to stop. Pujols may get more hits and a higher average but Quentin is going to hit more homers.


Well, lets see Pujols now has 15 HR same as Quienton, so therefore they still are even and Pujols is still a better HR hitter.

The Top 10 homerun hitters will be the top 10 hitters. There is no argument there

Yeah, this is literally lifted from any MLB stat sheet.

Except three players are tied with 14 HR, and Soriano amy or may not be the best of those three. I'll wait to see who Yanks picks.

Wow.

List 1st and argue in 2nd and 3rd

WHAT'S THERE TO ARGUE!? Hard to argue statistics when they're true....

Another "sky blue, water wet" TD

PackBrew the sky is only blue because water is, and water is only there because the sky provides the wet. Lets be serious now, ok?

Next thing you'll tell me is that you're super serial that ManBearPig is real....

June 4, 2008  01:26 PM ET

no, there are about two ways to argue this. You can simply state that the best home run hitters are the players who have the most home runs, or you can find the ten players who have the best hr/ab ratio in baseball.

June 4, 2008  01:27 PM ET

We myst see Yanksfan's picks first.

June 4, 2008  01:28 PM ET

must*

June 4, 2008  01:42 PM ET

i f you're just giving us the top ten HR hitters based on the number of HRs you can't argue it.

June 5, 2008  08:55 AM ET

Yes you can

June 5, 2008  09:29 AM ET

Lame.

June 5, 2008  02:58 PM ET

What do you mean "Lame"?!!

June 6, 2008  10:30 PM ET

Quentin hit #16 tonight but that doesn't change the FACT that this isn't a TD, but rather a listing in order of the HR leaders in MLB. What exactly was your opponent supposed to argue?

 
June 7, 2008  10:21 AM ET

Anything, he could have argued that Quentin faced worse pitching or had better line-up protection, there is plenty to argue.
