If folks are extremely excited about Jay Bruce after a single season of mostly solid stats, they should be just as excited about this guy.
Your prediction, IMHO, is spot on... and that's why - because you can get him very late for substantial value - that I like this gamble much more than I like picking Bruce as a top 60 fantasy performer.
Realistically, I think he strikes out too much, and he won't perform extremely well this year. So, my positive comments are probably best reserved for keeper leagues.

From Roto Authority this year
In 2009 Jose Bautista hit 10 home runs over 125 plate appearances in September and October, which we now know was a sign of things to come. Let's find late-drafted players who smacked 6+ home runs in a month in 2010, suggesting at least the possibility of a 30 home run season. Rather than try to tackle every 30-day slice I'm just going to look at each calendar month, so the methodology here is quick and imperfect.
•April: Alex Gonzalez (7), Jose Guillen (7), Colby Rasmus (6), Andruw Jones (6), Ty Wigginton (6) •May: Mike Napoli (8), Ty Wigginton (7), Luke Scott (7), Josh Willingham (7), Russell Branyan (6), Edwin Encarnacion (6), Mike Sweeney (6), Scott Rolen (6), Troy Glaus (6), Rod Barajas (6) •June: Brennan Boesch (8), Carlos Pena (8), Carlos Quentin (8), Scott Rolen (6), Mike Napoli (6), Troy Glaus (6) •July: Carlos Quentin (7), Carlos Pena (7), Mike Stanton (7), Andres Torres (7), Martin Prado (6), Jack Cust (6), Chris Denorfia (6), Jayson Nix (6), Ike Davis (6), Ian Stewart (6), Lance Berkman (6), Tyler Colvin (6) •August: Adam LaRoche (9), Luke Scott (9), Stephen Drew (8), Ryan Raburn (8), Marcus Thames (7), Russell Branyan (7), Yuniesky Betancourt (7), Jason Kubel (6), Pablo Sandoval (6), Bill Hall (6), Garrett Jones (6), Wilson Betemit (6), Pat Burrell (6) •September/October: Edwin Encarnacion (8), Mike Stanton (8), Jim Thome (7), Juan Uribe (7), Drew Stubbs (7), Pat Burrell (6), John Buck (6), Travis Snider (6), Kila Ka'aihue (6), Mike Aviles (6), Danny Espinosa (6) With some of these guys, it's all about playing time. If Napoli, Scott, Willingham, Quentin, or Burrell get 600 ABs, they're probably good for 30 homers.
The name that really jumps out at me is Stanton. I think this kid will hit 40 home runs in 2011, and he's being drafted in the 13th round. I'm also intrigued by Encarnacion, who could get a career-high in ABs if Adam Lind sticks at first base.

Before getting injured last year and during the last month he started to show signs of a breakout. One of my sleeper picks. Great ballpark for HRs. If he can improve contact rate (possible since he is still very young) and with a bit of BABIP luck, I could see 25 HRs, .270 avg and maybe even 10 SBs. Not bad for a mid to late round pick. He has a guaranteed starting role in the OF unlike last season, but is durability an issue? Already banged up this spring, but should be okay on opening day.

he has 3 HRs in the spring and it looks like he has made the active roster... if you are looking for a jay bruce like season from last year, this is a good endgame gamble...
just don't hold your breath... his AAA experience is under 100 ABs...
