Bruce

I think he can hit 40 but I don't want him to change his approach to do it. I'm sure he'll have some 40 HR years in his career.As long as he's healthy, he'll hit 40. He won't have to change his game to do it either. Power is his game despite his youth. If he tries to hard then no. If he continues to swing the way he is right now then yes. He showed yesterday that he has enough power to hit it out to LF and also crush one to RC. If he takes the approach of driving the ball to LC, like Votto does, then Bruce will likely be in the 40 HR range. If he starts the Edwin pull everything then he will likely be a 30 HR guy. Bruce is a guy that i would be tempted to bat in the 4 hole. Votto and Bruce back to back on righty days? How can that be a better duo. I can see them being split up on days where leftys pitch but when you have a righty on hte mound why not have taveras, phillips, votto, bruce. Talk about a frekin heck of a starting linup. Phillips has always batter up in the linup to even the 1 hole. Hes just now starting to get his bat back why not change things up and put him back into the roation where he belngs.
