    I'm pretty sure he was joking about Mejias-Brean hyphen/Encarnacion-Strand hyphen. Not that they were similar prospects.

    But they both have hyphens.

    I went Arroyo. His combo of glove, hit, power, speed and youth is too good to pass up.

    But I’ve been talked into picking CES next.

    They’re not really comparable players. It seems like hyphenated names are rare in Ohio.

    I'll take McLain. He doesn't quite have the glove of Arroyo or bat of CES, but he's higher floor than both. His pedigree tells me he has more upside than we might think (look at India). If he somehow combines the contact skills identified when he was drafted with his recent power/patience game he could actually be a star...

    and he plays middle infield and can steal bases. I think he'll be the long-term answer at 2B. India needs to move to 3B or the OF. With the shift gone, I think he'll be a problem at 2B.

    All my posts are my opinion - just like yours are. If I forget to state it and you're too dense to see the obvious, look here!
