If you want to argue Dukes' ceiling is as high as Young, I still won't listen.

[/ QUOTE ]

You're an open-minded one. I still don't know why I take you half-seriously.

[ QUOTE ]
To say his performance warrants a better projection is lunacy!

[/ QUOTE ]

Stop making up things, no one said any such thing.

Same can be said for the starting pitcher

Except it can't

I wonder if you were here back then. No, the Rangers did not destroy that trade. They took the player with the lower ceiling, lower floor, and thus lower EV.

[/ QUOTE ]

The BP articles sum up how badly the Rangers raped that trade. lol @ you thinking only extreme outcomes matter. I can get the lower ceiling AND lower floor player and still rape you in a trade simply because my player's average outcom is much higher and that's what is more likely.

It can tick for two more years before we even need to begin to worry.

You apparently don't know the meaning of the word top prospect.

Young's track record isn't sustained?

[/ QUOTE ]

Two mediocre years in a row = no.

What does he not have in his favor now?

"Two mediocre years in a row..."

Delmon's performance speaks of a star in the making regardless of his scouting reports.

lol

No plate discipline = missing a tool = um you're not good.

Maybe he gets it. Maybe he doesn't. Unlikely, though; even if he "gets" it, Young is never going to have a .400 OBP. There are a million potential corner OFs with .300/.350/.500 lines.
