Dude. You can't take a 65+ AB sample and draw a comparison. Plus....it's Winter Ball.

agreed.

Michael Taylor will be good, but Chris Carter is my choice for AL ROY

It is Winter Ball (as I wrote in my post), & the comparison is exactly what I wrote in my above post (between the 2 versus predominantly off-speed pitcher's, as that is a big reason why Carter & M.Taylor were sent to this league- to draw a sample of how they hit against pitcher's whom have been in the big's & can throw the type of big-league off-speed stuff that they'd see everynight, & to see if they need to polish up this aspect of thier game's). As for the comparison, I thought you were familiar with the two player's we are discussing? If you are (as am I), then why can you not take the above information & process it with all of the other knowledge you have of said player's & come to a conclusion, or evaluation of how the player's responded to thier Winter Ball assignment (which whether you think 65 AB's correlates with Carter's progress from this year or not, it most certainly does; as now Oakland's development offcial's will have one more thing they're going to have to work on with Carter...& IMO that gives Taylor yet another advantage).
