This is pretty good. This is elite among all time hitters, and in this case, sluggers.
It is a better measure of his precocious greatness of this young man superior hitter, since all of 2020 was only the 60-game shortened season.
Without the pandemic of 2020, Soto for sure would be 20-30 homers sooner, although one never knows, because an injury or other act of God could have thwarted the better would-be numbers.
Compare these year and AB numbers to the others above in so many more the Baby Bambino. To be fair, John Kruk, and likely the others, were not power hitters, i.e. sluggers. But they all played by the same rules.
Juan is marching on into the history books.
Go Nats! Go Juan.
