Actually Heyward's averaged 14 HRs a season and 19 per 162 games. Early season has him putting the ball in the air more often, which should be a good thing moving forward. Well, yes, because it's jacked up by that one 27 homer season. In the past three seasons he has hit 14, 11 and 13. His other three seasons he's hit 18, 14, 27. I'm thinking since he has hit 11 to 14 in four of his six seasons, that that is more likely where he is going to end up. But the dude has never been a "prodigious" home run hitter, and the focus on that part of his game like he suddenly is going to be one is odd to me. Sure, anything is possible. But the safer bet is that he hits 10 to 14. So, again, not sure why people constantly ask for a Heyward dong like he's Rizzo or Bryant. He's Zobrist. And nobody is constantly asking for Zobrist dongs. Well, he's a lot younger than Zobrist and seemingly has the abilities/capability to dong a lot more than he typically does, plus 2013 and 2011 were shortened seasons for him. It's certainly not unreasonable to want/hope to see him become a true dongsmith.
