I could only type that out. My tongue cannot form those words in that order. I’m doing my fantasy baseball draft right now and Yahoo ranks Carl Pavano above Mike Mussina.

Eric, on what do you base that? It looks to me that, at the age of 21/22, he was already almost an average AL OF with a superior arm. Out of 42 startling AL OFs in 2007, Melky was: -#22 in RBIs, better than Damon, G. Matthews, Drew and other $10 million+/yr. OFs -#19 in hits, more than Damon, Manny, Drew, Matthews, Wells, Crisp, Swisher -#5 in triples -#25 in total bases Many of his weaknesses are learnable: positioning, plate discipline, etc. And he's younger than Butler! “[Melky’s] bat is among the worst of all MLB outfielders.”
