So a guy who hit 6 home runs in 185 AAA at bats has to sell out his normal swing, develop muscle and take PED's to get to 15 home runs in the Majors, at best? The guy is 22 years old. He is also a guy who unlike most guys, has two entirely different swings that he works with depending on the count. At least for now.

Go there. Watch his videos. Look at the swing. Look at the bat speed. He isn't a real strong guy, but the other things are there for him. He is going to hit for a little bit of power in the future.
