PLAYERS WHO JUST MISSED MAKING THE CLUB.
YEAR---PLAYER-------------------HR
1962 ----RAMIRO CABALLERO----59
1932----JIMMIE FOXX-------------58
1938----HANK GREENBURG-------58
1939----TONY ROBELLO-----------58
1947----BUCK FRIERSON-----------58
1947----D.C. "PUD' MILLER---------57
1947----BILL SERENA--------------57
1930----HACK WILSON------------56
1935----GENE LILLIARD-----------56
1954----FRANK GRAVINO---------56
1957----STEVE BILKO--------------56
11 other players hit 55 HRs
I don't think anyone will be added to this list this year. If a players name is not on this list they hit 60 or more homers or have never hit 55.
No player since 1962 has hit between 55 and 59 homers in one season.
2007
AFTER HAVING ABOUT 8 PLAYERS WITH PHR'S OF 60 OR BETTER AT MID SEASON WE NOW HAVE ONLY TWO PLAYERS TO HIT 50 OR MORE. ALEX RODRIGUEZ JUST MISSED MAKING THE ALMOST LIST BY ONE HOMER. SO AT THE END OF THE 2007 SEASON THERE WILL BE NO CHANGES TO THE RECORD BOOKS IN 'THE MOST HOME RUNS IN ONE SEASON CATEGORY'

PHR STANDINGS as of July 1, 2008
The top seven players stay the same, but the top five are all AAA players. The minors all play a 144 game season. The added 18 games that MLB play will mean that one of them will still win the long ball title this year. Dallas McPherson of the Pacific Coast League has the highest PHR. D. Uggla had a hot week, but sprain his ankle and will miss some games, he is tied with C. Utley for MLB HOME RUN LEAD.
Home run leaders have changed almost weekly. Home run totals are lowest they have been in a long time. Anyone of about 15 players have a chance to win the title, but I don't think the winner will hit 50 homers this year.

TOP 7 PHR LEADERS AS OF 06/20/08
As of today it seams that nobody is going to hit fifty homers this year. The top two PHR leaders are from the majors, the current top three home run leaders are from the minors. I have only listed the players that have 21 or more homers, there are only seven.
PHR......GP......GL......PGA......HR....PLAYER
48.3......69.......90.......304........21.....D. UGGLA
48.1......74.......88........297........22.....CHASE UTLEY
47.4......73.......71.........329........24....BRAD ELDRED
47.3......72.......54.........375.......27.....KIT PELLOW
46.0.....66.......72.........333.......22.....DALLAS MCPHERSON
45.0.....71.......68.........324.......23.....MIKE HESSMAN
44.0.....63......69.........333........21.....NELSON CRUZ
If Uggla or Utley don't have 30 homers by the ALL STAR GAME, and I don't think they will, then 60 homers is out of the question for this year.

future book update. as of 6/10/08
On March 27, 2008 I listed the future book odds for the HR title

ANY OTHER PLAYER FROM MINORS LEADS (MIKE
HESSMAN) AT 75-1 TO HIT MOST HOMERS IN 2008

PHR STANDINGS AS OF 06/08/08
PHR'S ARE DROPPING FAST. AS OF TODAY NO ONE IS ON COURSE TO HIT 55 HOMERS (THE ALMOST LIST). C. UTLEY IS THE ONLY ML BALL PLAYER ON TRACK TO HIT 50 OR MORE AND ONLY M. HESSMAN IS ON TRACK TO 50 OR MORE IN THE MINORS.
M. HESSMAN PLAYS IN A 144 GAME SEASON LEAGUE, IF ADJUSTED TO 162 HIS PHR WOULD BE 54.5 TOPS IN ALL ORGANIZED BASE BALL AND STILL UNDER THE 55 ALMOST LIST.
IT JUST GOS TO SHOW WHAT A LITTLE MANDI TORY DRUG TESTING CAN DO FOR ( OR IS THAT TO) A SPORT.
