I'm expecting a season somewhere right in the middle of what Andruw Jones did his first full season in '97 and what Albert Pujols did in his rookie year. Something along the lines of [.273BA, 28HR, 100RBI, 86R, 32 2B]. That would be an absolutely PHENOMENAL year...and would definitely be worthy of ROY...but watching him play in the minors and seeing his progression over the past 2 years...I truly expect he can do it.

.275/20/80 would be about my guess, and that would be a phenomenal rookie campaign. This is a really, really big transition. It's not often that a rookie puts up better numbers than that.

Update:

.272/15 HR/58 RBI

Pujols-esque!

TheRob FAIL!

Now watch him go on an absolute tear to end the season . . . .

I know this is your thread, and I'm gonna let you finish, but 4 years, 50 million for Richie Sexson was the worst contract of ALL TIME :banger:

I don't think that's nearly as retarded as the 5 year $65 million contract given to a visibly hobbled Albert Belle by the Orioles....

That was BAD, but 7 years and $126 million for a 32 year OF who had two good years in a stacked lineup in SPECIAL. Dare I say Bill Martin-esque.

OK sure, that sucked, but if you want to go with the has-been, hobbled as fuck former slugger, go with Mo Vaughn and the 6 year, 80 million he got from the Angels in 99.

Yeah, well if you don't like the Sexon, or the Vaughn...what about the 8 years and $121 million the Rockies gave to Mike Hampton in 2001?
