What if Gleyber Torres only faced the Orioles?

One of the biggest and funniest stories of the 2019 Yankees season was Gleyber Torres’ performances against the Orioles. In 18 games and 75 plate appearances against Baltimore, Torres hit .394/.467/1.045 with 13 home runs. He crushed nearly any pitcher the Orioles trotted out against him, much to the dismay of their broadcaster Gary Thorne.

Continuing at that pace over 162 games, Torres would’ve hit over 100 home runs. Even as well as he hit against them, and as poor as the 2019 Orioles’ pitching was, that’s probably not feasible.
