1st baseman of the future

lordsepic · Feb 10, 2009

which 1st baseman do you think will have the best career

I choose Kila... I think he is very similar to Albert Pujols... Although he is already a little older than others on the list, there are very few guys I have seen with his plate discipline. This guy has potential to be a superstar if he doesn't get pushed back by the royals and their plethora of 1st basemen

I voted for Brandon Snyder.

How about another tab.

I voted for Lars.

moxacaine · Feb 10, 2009

From that list, Votto.

Lars Anderson is my choice, but I am a big believer in Ka'aihue.

I think Lars is the best hitter in the minors. Guys with easy power like Lars has tend to get better over time. With a .417 on-base percentage over two levels last season, the plate discipline is already there. Easy power in Boston will mean huge numbers. I think Lars will be the best home-grown hitter in the Red Sox organization since I don't know when.

Card count: 1

I can get with this.
Card count: 0 (I don't even have the framed DK for my set yet).

I'm biased, I voted Lars. Look at my avatar.....

All roads point to Lars Anderson at this point.

It's tough to not vote for a guy who hasn't struggled in the minors yet and has played up to AA ball.

I'm curious to see where he starts the season this year, probably Portland for a few months and possibly AAA Pawtucket I would guess.

If Alonso is as good as advertised, then Votto will end up in LF.

Sheridan = Connor Jackson

Jurgy25 · Feb 10, 2009

Wow i'm surprised that on these boards more people voted for Votto than Freddie. I myself chose Lars Anderson because of his monster power.

Adam G · Feb 10, 2009

Wow, no love for Chris Carter? Really?

If Yonder pans out like I think he will, those other dudes will be afterthoughts, even Lars.

Hold up card treasury! Who is the best hitter in the minors? It is obviously Matt Wieters by far. Here is a guy that started out a Frederick and only got better on his way to Bowie where he had less strikeouts and a higher BA. I voted for Votto because he has MLB experience already and he will get better as he moves along. Anderson is very good as well, but I am not sold on him yet.
