The Home Run Derby roster has been announced! Well, mostly… they still have another AL spot open.
So, for those who want to get psyched by images of longball, here are links to the longest home runs by each of the participants so far this year:
Robinson Cano‘s 442-foot solo bomb off the batter’s eye in Minnesota.
Prince Fielder‘s 460-foot shot at Comerica.
Chris Davis‘ 439-foot longball at Camden Yards.
David Wright‘s 464-foot bomb against Craig Kimbrel in Atlanta.
Carlos Gonzalez‘s 458-foot shot deep into the Cincinnati night.
Michael Cuddyer‘s game-tier of 434 feet.
Bryce Harper‘s 434-foot bomb off of Bronson Arroyo.
I’ll put up the farthest by whoever else is named later.
