Justin brings up the precedent of Matt Weiters in Baltimore, a #5 overall pick who hit .350/.450/.600 in A+ and AA straight out of college, and a 1:1 EYE ratio into the bargain.
Weiters has hit only .265/.328/.415 in three years catching in the AL, but of course that may be simply that Weiters was never that talented.
I know one thing - he couldn't have been any more talented with the bat than Montero. Nobody is. :- )
............
If the M's do wind up with a .550 SLG catcher, then they are in for some joy-joy happy happy years.
