Strasburg, Harper, Trout, Posey...pick one

RE: Strasburg, Harper, Trout, Posey...pick one
Zunino is a stud. So far he's showing to be the best bat out of the 2012 draft. I won't be suprised to see him get the call up this year. Definately a future player for Seattle fans to be excited about.

That injury wasn't totally his fault and you can't really predict if it'll happen again or not. It's also not the easiest transition from catcher to first. Kung fu panda is going to need a home if he gets any bigger. Good luck socrkd55. Ive begun to collect those as well. Already have a 2009 team use Haper auto #101/899.might be going for a Trout BSP auto.

The injury may not have been his fault but what other position do you see something like that happen other than catcher? Collisions happen in the outfield and sometimes in the infield but it's much more common behind the plate.

An injury like that can come from any position covering a a base. But you see it more with catchers because they block the plate. If you block the plate, players have the right to collide and try to jar the ball loose. It's part of the game. He was just in a bad position to take a collision.

RE: Strasburg, Harper, Trout, Posey...pick one
You should collect Trout... I have his RC that I am looking to sell. :-)

Trout still has a lot to prove...he had one unbelievable season...and I don't know of any reason why he won't continue to get better. But still....1 year. I sure like his attitude better than Bryce. For some reason BH just rubs me wrong. Now Posey, he's proven. He's going to be around for a long time, as a leader and great player. If it were me, looking for a stable pick, I'd go Posey.....Upside? Trout.

Ask me again in May, I'll have different opinion I'm sure!

RE: Strasburg, Harper, Trout, Posey...pick one
Posey hands down. His cards are affordable compared to the other 3. He already has 2 world series titles and an MVP. Trout, Harper and Strasburg are still young. Trout's cards will drop in value as soon as he hits a rough patch (which he will). Harper is 19 or 20 years old. I think he has the highest ceiling but who knows if he will turn out to be the superstar everyone expects him to be. And Strasburg is a pitcher that is babied. Remember Joba Chamberlain. I do. I named my Beckett profile after him. Who knows how he will respond to being shelved in September while watching his team get bounced in the first round of the playoffs. If you want my advice you should go with what a player has already accomplished and not what you expect him to accomplish. Good luck with whoever you choose to collect. It should be fun.

RE: Strasburg, Harper, Trout, Posey...pick one
I'll go with Trout. Posey is a catcher....I have a feeling it will start taking a toll on his body after a few more years behind the dish. Strasburg is injury prone, and I think Trout has more raw talent than Harper.

I think they'll all have great careers, just think Trout will have the best out of the bunch.
