Quote:Baez destroyed A-AA last year too but there's something different about Bryant. He just doesn't struggle; just shows up and calmly starts hitting on day 1. Still think Baez makes first though. Baez seems like he's one hot streak away.

Is it possible Bryant will be the first of the big names we'll see in the majors?
In AA his OPS is 1.067.

From what I've seen, Bryant actually has a plan and approach to ABs. Baez has none. Baez lets ptichers attack him and waits for a mistake, while Bryant goes out to attack pitchers and gets HIS pitch.

I'm ok with another Soriano in the lineup.

If Baez could turn out a Soriano-esque career, that would be awesome.
I only have seen him for 3 PA but he did seem pretty squirrely to swing the bat. I think Bryant and Baez get called up at the same time or very close together so Bryant can take some of the attention off of Baez and he can hopefully settle in quickly.
