in Detroit. Just read an article on Mlive that mentioned he his HRs traveled an average of around 407 feet. Plus, if you look at his HR chart...

and compare it to Comerica's dimensions...

you'll notice that Prince might lose 2-3 HRs to outs or doubles. Either way, the man's power is unreal and I wouldn't expect much (if any) of a dropoff.
 
He may lose a few to LC and center but he will probably pick up some cheap ones to RF. I think he will hit around 35-40+ a year for the next 4 years.
 
Tigers finally nabbed the son of a legendary Tigers hitter, albeit about a half-decade into his MLB career.

Hopefully something similar to that might happen and even sooner with yet another son of a famous and legendary rusher for the Lions, before the end of this decade.

After all, the old saying is that the apple never falls far from the tree, amirite?

new chapter in an old story

A few months ago, I fiddled-around that hittracker website and uncovered that little Andrew McCutcheon's average home run travels something like 402 feet.

That little guy is one strong son-of-a-gun.
