Dude is a beastly looking guy at the plate - he's 6-7 and kind of looks like a more muscular Darryl Strawberry. Long lefty with a really aggressive stance - maybe looks like a young (but left handed) A-Rod as well.

No idea how highly touted he is - I think he's only been up for a few games last season and now this season.

Just thought I'd share - my favorite MLB'ers to watch bat have been ARod for the past 14 or so seasons and Braun for the past 7-8 seasons or so. This kid could be equally fun if he pans out. Also loved Bonds and Strawberry when they were active.

He's got a long way to go, but if he can develop his opposite field hitting like Miggy and JD Martinez, he could be really good. Only issue is he is a right fielder that they're trying to convert to left field, so he'll need to improve his defense. There are high expectations for him in Detroit.

Fairly highly touted... he is going to strike out a lot, but has ridiculous power.

He's never made BA's top 100. He had a .703 OPS in AAA last year.

He did have a good season a couple years ago in AA.

I thought I'd like watching Sanoe from the twins that a lot more than I actually do

I feel bad for leaving Josh Donaldson off of my list of favorite hitters, but he's easily number one right now

Saw him hit an opposite field homer on what looked like a half swing. Ridiculous power.
