Which active players are in contention for the "Youngest Player To 250 Homers" leaderboard?
The following players are all at least two-thirds to the total and theoretically on-pace to make this leaderboard:
| Player | Current HR | Current Age |
|---|---|---|
| Rafael Devers | 240 | 29-206 |
| Yordan Alvarez | 185 | 28-325 |
| Ronald Acuna | 188 | 28-146 |
| Vladimir Guerrero Jr. | 186 | 27-063 |
Note: Some players on this leaderboard might show up as having 251 or 252 home runs, which means they hit multiple HRs in the game in which they crossed the milestone. In order to normalize the modern statistics and the historic ones (for which there is no play-by-play data), all the stats shown here are based on per-game statistics. Meaning that the at-bat total might not be the exact at-bat in which the player reached the milestone, only the number of ABs and PAs they had at the conclusion of the game in which they reached the milestone.
