Let's hope the Pirate reports are right about Cole at #1. I'm way tired of Cole vs. Bauer anyway (and not JUST because I'm losing -- with everyone except the Pirates anyway . . . *grin*). http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20110606&content_id=20105380&vke...
So apparently the REAL debate is Rendon vs. Lindor, with Lindor charging down the stretch and making up ground on every stride. Churchill has some sort of inside scoop that's behind his pay wall, and apparently it's "known" that Lindor came to Seattle for a private workout.
I still go with Rendon and his "Hank Aaron wrists" (which have never been injured) and "Edgar-with-good-D" as not even his ceiling.
But I see why Lindor's floor is tantalizing, with the glove-OBP-decent speed combo virtually an MLB guarantee.
[I still can't square Bauer with the "no giant risk at #2" notion, but if Z and McNamara disagree, I'll go there, too. My sense is Rendon vs. Lindor, though.]
