2K11 Delmon Young

[Jefe]

Razzball says he's the 42nd best OF out there.

Fangraphs says his closest comparison is Carlos Lee. Their projections put him at a range of .289 - .306 with 15 - 21 HR.

Forecaster says .294 with 24 HR and 39 2B and I want to believe.

DY is close to not draftable for me. He is the main RBI man in the Twins lineup, but that is his biggest virtue. His faults are many. It is too early to compare IMO. As to the projections, those are not for his BA, but his BABIP. The BA projections are .289 to .306.

Young has the reputation of a tools guy, that never put it together, til last year. However, he has alway struck out twice as often as he walked, and occasionally much worse. He is only 25, and he has a reputation as a prospect coming into hos own, which will raise interest. I see the lack of plate discipline and tough HR park, and say, "Let someone else bid for him."

For what it is worth, I have a similar player in Adam Jones, so take this all with a grain of salt.
