Cruz did 75/33/75/20 in 2009 and will have 100 more ABs this year. You have a different theory?

[/QUOTE]So it's ok to extrapolate for Carlos Gonzalez but not for Nelson Cruz?

if he gets 550 at bats, he'll probably hit in the high 30's for hr.

[/QUOTE]Don't you think 40 homers with 90 rbi looks ugly on a good hitting team?

It's before the year and posts with projections in them are meaningless to me, so lets give him 120 rbi...there, thats better.



Of course, I'm being facetious.

Myself, I like Cruz enough, he is just one of those players that will not find his way on my teams because I'm of the opinion that there are better third and fourth round options.

Like Butler from your favorite team ;) Actually, Butler had a better chance of making my teams than Cruz did. I think Butler is fair value in the fifth and sixth rounds. Unfortunately, I started one Main with Pujols and the other with Teixeira. That only left a best case scenario left for Butler.



I did get two Royals on my teams in Podsednik and Callaspo ;)
