Olivo (yeah, seriously) led the team in home runs last year with 19.

I'm going with Jesus Monetro. That dude has some raw power, and I think he will show it off in Safeco. I'd say around 26 for him.

I voted for Smoak while his devolopment is a little concerning he has shown stretches where he can really hit the ball and he is more experienced then Montero who would have been my 2nd choice.

I voted for Smoak slightly over Montero too.

Montero, but I could've easily said Smoak

Kyle Seager might surprise some of us too if is given a full time position. He has some hidden power for his size.

Montero or Smoak. I'll say Montero.

I accidentally voted for Ackley. I meant to vote for Montero, so I've skewed the actual vote. Sorry. Wouldn't surprise me if it were Smoak though. Ackley would, but only because he's hitting in the two hole and will likely be trying to move runners over more and hit the occasional bomb. However, that 437 footer he hit in the Tokyo Dome was an eye opener. Longer than any he hit last year by 24 feet. To dead center. His first of the year... He's certainly got the pop to do it. If he does I'm buying his jersey.

I fixed it for you to un-skew the voting.

I could honestly see it, but I think he'll be around 20 dingers and 10 triples. He'll hit some balls off the fence that net him three bases. Tack on 35 doubles and he leads the team in extra base hits which is more important, IMO.
