Rex Hudler Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 If by "promising? you mean who has the most potential, then the answer has to be Chris Young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wsox08 Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 (edited) Where can I vote for Joe Borchard? Edited September 17, 2005 by wsox08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sayitaintso Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 I'd say BMac because he could be a stud pitcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigEdWalsh Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 I said Valido, though it's a real tough choice. He has been a better hitter than expected. He's a slick fielder. He's been a very proficient base-stealer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randar68 Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I voted for Young because the question is based on potential. Based on that, Young could be a 40-40 guy in the majors who pushes .400 OBP... Those guys are rare and usually end up in a small town in rural NY... McCarthy's margin-for-error to become "great" is smaller. I think he could be a Buehrle-type pitcher in that he throws a lot of innings, is a 15-19 game winner, and is just short of being a true Ace. So, a Very good #2 pitcher, basically. That's pretty good, but not really HOF-worthy unless he does it for 20 years. Gio and Valido still have question marks and a long ways to go, IMO. Sweeney has not shown the eye-popping power that would lead you to think he had a high ceiling, but everything else he does well. Has potential, but still behind Young IMO.

RockRaines Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I agree with Randar. If you mean potential by who has the chance to be the biggest star. Young has Maggs-like offensive numbers in terms if extra base hits, and has the speed and fielding ability to make him a staple in a starting lineup. I like him a whole lot.

OilCan Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 BMac, potential to be a top of the line starter. Probably a #2 or #3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
