Hideki Matsui recently joined this club, although he had 332 HRs in Japan.

David Wright, Matt Holliday and Adam LaRoche all seem destined to join this list shortly -- all have over 80 homers and each is still in just his 4th MLB season.

Andy - relates to our other discussion - would have been interesting to include
age - my boy Cabrera is headed for 140 plus and is only 24 - Teixeira and Dunn are both
three years older...

Well hey, at least I included him on the list. You can't accuse me of being one of those folks who ignores Miggy.
