If Andrew Vaughn were at least two inches taller, he’d be held in a higher regard. 

I said that as well the other day.  If he was 6-4" he'd be a top 15 prospect.  All he does is demolish baseballs.  This is baseball not basketball there's no real inherent advantage in being tall.  "longer levers" sure but also longer swings.  Vaughn generates plenty of power.

He's already the top 1B prospect in baseball and a top 30 guy though. 

Yeah, he’s both those things but if he were taller he’d probably be labeled a better athlete and would give off the perception to some people that he could maybe play another position. He’d might be ranked higher.

Short, stocky white guys aren’t really looked at as being good, physical athletes.

If he was two inches taller and more athletic he would be Mike Trout......

If Mike Trout went to college he would be the best 1-1 since A Rod....who I think went 1-1 if not, since  Griff JR

He is not two inches taller or more athletic so I will take Paul Konerko 2.0 

Just think from  2001-2035 we could have only 3 different firstbasemen
