Its also eyesight, bat speed, and hand-coordination among other possible things. You can be as strong as you like, but if you can't get the bat on the ball, nothing is leaving the park. I'd even venture that overall strength is nowhere near the most important factor in hittin HRs. Take someone like Jose Ramirez as an example.
