There are certain players who can make the jaws of fans drop to the floor every time they launch a baseball into the seats. Houston Astros slugger Yordan Alvarez is one of those guys. He led the squad in 2022 with 37 homers, but what will he do this year? We’re going to keep track of everything right here with our handy, dandy 2023 Yordan Alvarez Home Run Tracker.
Below, you’ll find all the pertinent information you’d want to know about his 2023 tanks. This includes the date and opponent, along with the distance and exit velocity for each dinger.

Alvarez debuted in 2019 but came into this season with just over three years of service time. He’s already surpassed the 100-homer plateau and is among the fastest to ever join that club. The sky seems to be the limit for this dude — both this year and into the foreseeable future. We’ll update this article every time he goes yard, which should be plenty as long as he’s in the lineup.
