I think it's rather cute. FYI Austin Kearns has an wOBA of .411. It’s ok if you guys have mancrushes on Dukes. I think it’s rather cute. FYI Austin Kearns has an wOBA of .411.

The difference would be, though, that 2nd is filled with players in their primes, whereas CF is filled with potential stars in the making entering their prime. With much the same language as well…

He was also about two years older than Rasmus. All of this really means nothing, except don't trust subjective judgments on young players. Also, even if Rasmus is a 15 HR guys, I think it speaks to the depth of CF that this would be looked at as a disappointment.

Fri, 01 May 2009 20:42:25 +0000 http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/?p=4656#comment-74179 There's a big difference between "He's the best player ever" and "he's a young talented player who should be getting at bats every day and not riding the pine in favor of aging hack who have no future with a terrible team." Oh, and he's got a .348 wOBA right now, and have we mentioned he's only 24 years old? But yeah, by all means, the staff here isn't wrong for criticizing the Nats giving Austin Kearns and Josh Willingham PT over him.

Fowler, Kemp, Jones, and Upton will be regular all-stars. i think of all those players, Rasmus has the highest ceiling(Sizemore-esque or Jim Edmonds would be good comps).

He's hit the ball quite well several times this season, and it simply didn't carry enough to be out of the park unless it was down the line.
