I played on a lot of travel teams and in a lot of showcases with Bowden as a kid. Awesome guy. Great pitcher. Stuff kind of left him as he aged but I swear I thought he was going to be roger Clemens.

Two of those are probably better than Konerko and Hoskins is too early to tell. Draft comps are always best case scenarios. The reality is that there is pretty good chance Vaughn is the next Ryan Garko. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldschmidt, Bagwell, Hoskins. Two of those are probably better than Konerko and Hoskins is too early to tell. Paul Goldschmidt stole 25-35 bases per year in his 20s. Vaughn isn't going to do that. Honestly, most likely his ceiling is Konerko with an outside chance of Bagwell. Frank was otherworldly and probably a top 10 hitter in baseball history. He was right there with Jr and pre-roids Bonds. You never expect anyone to be Frank Thomas. Edited June 4, 2019 by Jack Parkman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
