[QUOTE=rutgersjpm;17556364]I would like to capitalize on an opportunity here to ask that everyone look at Juan Soto's minor league stats. Granted, he dealt with injuries and they're mostly small sample sizes, but at the age of 18 he was 2 levels higher than Hedbert and MASHING with more BB than K. Please, don't ever compare a minor leaguer to Juan Soto. There's no comparison.

This guy gets it!!!!

Everyone is down on this guy like he hasn’t already solidified his HOF case in his first 18 games of rookie ball. Calling him the next Juan Soto is an insult. We’re talking Ted Williams. Babe Ruth. That kid from Rookie of the Year. All combined into one.

You know what Juan Soto calls this guy? Sir. And he averts his eyes in his presence. He kisses his rings as he bows before him on entrance, and he never turns his back out of him. Basic respect.

If I were all of you there is no dollar limit I wouldn’t offer the OP for his card. But beware. He will be too smart to sell.

I think he means “the next CHRIS MARRERO”.

Comparing him directly to a MLB player is silly. But bottom line is that there is likely to be superstar-type ballplayer from a J2 class in Rookie ball right now.

Everyone seems older because everyone at this level was essentially delayed an entire year. So, those 19 YO's you see aren't delayed really.

Is the superstar player likely to to be Hedbert? Nope! Nobody is LIKELY to be the guy. That'll shake out as time progresses. But Hedbert is showing that's he's as likely to be the guy as anyone else at the level.

So much for that pimping, that worked well eh?

I would turn this around and say typical blowout thread. So many people can't just let things happen naturally, and decide to use this site to forcefully pump certain people they are invested in.

Hedbert appears to have nice potential, but your op deserves all of the responses it has gotten.

[QUOTE=bulljh;17557173]Which PBM are you?[/QUOTE]

I admit. Too new to know what PBM means.

I'm gonna get ahead of this and say this as ridiculously as I can:

ACL Player of the Week LFG!!!!!! HoF next let's dooooo it!!!!!

How'd I do?

OP has under 20 posts and owns a gold Hedbert. Very obviously a pump thread.

While I'm here though... Salas > Hedbert :D

I know you said LFG, but it's customary to go with the Let's gooooooooooooooooooo. That is what all the hype bois are doing.

So I'll deduct a point for missing the obvious, but overall it's a solid effort.

his autograph makes me root against him. SIGN here, not INITIAL here.

The best is when they pull a 2021 Trout unlicensed Panini pajama card and scream that for 20 seconds, followed by an alarming number of "bros" sprinkled in.

LOL! I just heard this in my head.

[QUOTE=Yaga;17555040]No monsters but I grabbed a bunch of his stuff before rookie ball. This isn't some random guy who's putting up empty stats... quite a few scouts were extremely high on him and think he has huge potential

Has anyone figured out how to pronounce his name??? I've heard 3 different guys pronounce it 3 different ways![/QUOTE]

Very nice collection.

I believe it's pronounced egg-burt. With emphasis on the egg syllable.
