He may not have quite enough power over there. He does, however, have an absolutely beautiful stroke to go along with solid plate discipline. I think he'll put up a big batting line this year while transitioning over to the MI. Love your pick of Zawacki, by the way. He completely slipped my mind this morning, otherwise I would have included both he and Adam Reifer. Great pick. Easy-

One or both could make it unnecessary to resign Glaus after '09. McCormick as comeback is a good pick too. Agree with Azruavatar about Hamilton. Don't see him as a prospect.

Once your body is trained to throw a certain way you can't just stop and go back to a different way. And as much as they say they want him to go back to his old mechanics Duncan has been working with him to change his mechanics a diifferent way.
