Gleyber at 19? Was on the fast track to the majors last year before injury . Hitting very well in AAA at 20. 

Never been high on him. I had him outside of the top 10 last year.

Average fielder. Average arm. Never going to do much with his speed.

That leaves two more tools.

Power? Maybe 10-12 a year max.

Hit tool? He has always missed too may pitches at every level.

Honestly, if I had the balls, I would have had him outside of the top 50, but i dont.

He might be Caesar Hernandez of the Phillies because he is a 2B unless he gets much better, which he has the skills(thats why he is this high).

I will be very sad if you’re right, love Gleyber , think he’s gonna be a great Yankee.

Man, and I thought I was the low guy on Torres (even going back to his Cubs days, so none of this "you only knock him because he was traded" nonsense).

I think he's a "sum is greater than the parts" type of player.  He's not going to be a superstar, but he can be a solid starter at 2B for a number of years in the Jed Lowrie mold that churns out 3-4 Win seasons.

Miguel Cabrera.  Prime Miggy, not the current version

I’m going Joey Votto. 20-25 HR, high average, high OBP, and Vlad could be playing first in a couple years.

now I’m obviousy saying he’s going to be Votto, but I see that type of profile. He could miss that and end up being Brandon Belt, which is still valuable:

Brandon Belt ? I better lower my expectations. I liked Miggy and Votto comps a lot more

I don't think anyone ever put a 70 or 80 on Brandon Belt's hit tool or power tool.  Vlad Jr might be 70+ on both.

Definitely not saying he is Belt. I was saying that if he didn’t reach the high expectations of a Votto/Cabrera that a Belt comparison could be close.

just like if Acuna doesn’t reach Gary Sheffield or whoever type production, I could still being somewhat like Mike Cameron.
