Teixeira's powerful start

By Doug Padilla on September 4, 2008 4:57 PM | | Comments (0) |

Mark Teixeira is just one home run from 200 in his career and has managed to reach the cusp of that milestone in just six seasons. The power production so early in his career is better than anybody currently playing except the Cardinals' Albert Pujols. Here is the list of the top active home run hitters in their first six seasons.


Albert Pujols 250 (2001-06)
Mark Teixeira 199 (2003-08)
Adam Dunn 198 (2001-06)
Todd Helton 186 (1997-2002)
Frank Thomas 182 (1990-05)
