His stat line..
.280 AVG .332 OBP .848 OPS .516 SLG 15 HR
Lets compare that to Jesus Montero stats in Double AA last year who was is the same age as Rosario (21) when he went through Double AA.
.316 AVG .370 OBP .909 OPS .539 SLG 9 HR
Did I mention that Rosario has a cannon for an arm (His 40% CS rate is a testament to that) and will most likely stay behind the plate and not to move to the DH spot like Montero? Its going to be fun to watch this kid hitin big flys and throwin guys out in Colorado.
In my opinion, Rosario is at if not above Montero's level if you consider the entire package.
No doubt Wilin is a great player, but Montero was 19 when he went thru AA, not 21.
I'm a Wilin fan, and he's light years better as a catcher, but Montero has Miguel Cabrera hitting ability.
Good lord Wilin
