Playing in Yankee Stadium , it's a tough park for righthanded hitters to pile up high home run totals...He already broke Joe D record for homers in a season at Yankee a couple years back....tough park though, i would love to see him hit 85 homers and just destroy the record lol.
I will predict 65, I would be shocked at anything under 50 at this point.

I do consider ARod to be one of my favorite players yet if you put the pieces together with him I would not be shocked for one red second if he has a chemist working for him. Here is why. The NY media and even some of his teammates have been very critical of him since he walked into the dugout with all that money. He had a terrible post season and didn't even come up with the big late inning hits during the regular season. He is playing in probably the toughest ball park in baseball for righthanders to hit home runs so he gets sick of hearing about his struggles and figures "why not a bit of help" since he if he has a big season he gets a re up with NY or if he moves on he can write his own ticket.
I have heard stories on sports radio that say the chemists are at least 5 years ahead of testing.
