GLENDALE, Ariz. — Fifty. Fifty home runs.
That's a lot of home runs in a single season.
But Eloy Jimenez — like he does with just about everything — is greeting that number with a smile and a laugh.
"Why not?" he said, when asked Monday at Camelback Ranch if he believes he could hit 50-plus homers in a single campaign.
Jimenez does this quite often, asking his own questions of reporters who just asked him a question. Most of the time it's an opinion kind of thing. For example, earlier in the same media session, I asked him how the White Sox lineup looks after the team's many offseason additions.
