The 2023 MLB season will be a bit more interesting than last season as there are players eager to break the Aaron Judge 62 home runs record.
So far among the favorites to break the 2022 record is Shohei Ohtani, but last season he did not finish in the top 10.
Other players who could fight in the top three of the current season are Kyle Schwarber, Mike Trout, Pete Alonso and Salvador Perez.

Only twice in the 21st century have 60+ home runs been scored in a single season, the first time being in 2001 with the Barry Bonds' 73 home runs and most recently in 2022 with Aaron Judge's 62 home runs.
