Message #3 by Rob Reed @ June 5, 2009, 07:50am i don't think so his BABIP isn't low enough for me to think that he is going to have a drastic improvement in avg, unfortunately... i think we're looking at - at least for this year - a guy who is only gonna hit about .250 the hope is that he gets the power oomph back and gets to 15 HRs, but i don't think this is worth snagging him in a one catcher league because the only reason to would be to shop him later for a high commodity need, and i just don't think he's going to be good enough - THIS year

Message #2 by Bearlo0317 @ June 4, 2009, 07:02pm Thoughts Is he worth trying to buy low on him? I have McCann already but if I can get a chip for later on at a low price?

Message #1 by Rob Reed @ 3/6/08, 8:54pm I like this kid... Naysayers are telling you to look at this kid's stats prior to last season's AAA breakout. I will tell you to focus mainly on 109 RBIs in 385 ABs. Is he a .300 hitter? Time will tell. But, if he hits .240 and belts 20+ HR with 85+ RBI in the catcher position (which is not a pipe dream), he is extremely valuable in fantasy. I put my money where my mouth is by drafting him in my "experts" league.

x=year; y=% of available fantasy points per year x 1000
