Sure, Edwin Encarnacion hit 16 homers in May and tied Mickey Mantle’s long-standing record for dingers in the month. That’s great stuff—but May is over. Thankfully, Double-E’s May performance is just a concentrated version of what he’s been doing for years now. In fact, since the beginning 2012 no one in baseball has hit more homers than Encarnacion. That’s long-term plate power, and the Jays are reaping the benefits.
