I have a gift.

Man, Rhetorical question and you don't have to answer. But what does your red rookie chrome collection look like? You have all the big names smashed!

"Following a season that saw him tear up the Texas League and homer in his first Major League at-bat, Rangers shortstop Jurickson Profar begins 2013 as baseball's top prospect.
The 19-year-old switch-hitter took the top spot ahead of Orioles right-hander Dylan Bundy and Cardinals outfielder Oscar Taveras when the Top 100 Prospects were revealed live on MLB Network on Tuesday evening."

Juan Soto will be the next Tony Gwynn of the Padres. I already compared him a couple months ago to Tony Gwynn. Ill do it again. Juan Soto is the next Tony Gwynn.

I’ll bet you a beer that, when his career ends, he won’t be able to go 0-1,200 and still end up with a career .300 BA. We can discuss in 20(ish) years

I don't see it. Soto is more patient with more power, Gwynn a higher average.

I thought Soto was more comparable to Hank Aaron if he can have a similar Longevity with 40+ Homerun power coming at the age of 23-24

Soto projects to be a much better offensive player, period. Soto and Gwynn already have the same number of seasons going over 150 wRC+
