I'm targeting Trout (if I don't have the #1 or the #2 overall pick.)
And it I had the #1 pick I would probably flip flop back and forth between Tatis and Acuna 20 times.
I'd be better off with the #2 pick, whoever goes first (Acuna or Tatis) I'll gladly take what's not taken.
Now I have nothing against Mookie, I actually think he doesn't hit higher than .290 this year.
I think his ceiling is .290/30/90 with about 20 swipes.
Solid, yes? Worthy of a #3 overall? No.
Soto has more upside I believe than Mookie does this season.
Personally I think Soto is primed for a monster season.
The Zips projection for Soto are obscene.
Zips has Soto's slash line at .305/37/141
I can see .300. I can even see 37 taters.
But 141 RBI's? I put stock in the ZIPS and Steamer projections but wow!
You know who the last people to drive in 141 in a season?
It happened twice in 2009 by a couple of bell cows.
Prince Fielder and Ryan Howard each drove in 141 in 2009.
(They both run the 440 in 4 hours by the way)
Seriously, ZIPS thinks Soto can put up triple crown numbers in 2021.
