Let's face it, we've been doing terribly with out #1 Draft Picks as of late. With the exception of David Price and possibly Bryce Haper, none of them have been the stars that we expected. Strasburg was injured all season, Hochevar never became the huge starter, Beckham never made the majors. And then there's this guy, who's hitting pretty well despite not meeting everyone's expectations. People were comparing Delmon Young to Ryan Howard when he was a rookie, although I think now a more apt comparison would be Chili Davis. The guy gets traded around a lot, is supposed to be big, and might wind up on a World Series winning team sometime in the near future.
Coming Tomorrow- The Marlins have been tanking this season, but this guy might be their future.
Chili Davis? Oh my, no. Delmon is a first pitch swinging hack that plays outfield on rollerskates. I am more than glad he's no longer a Twin, as are many fans.
