Has there been a more successful MLB player from Mainieri's teams than D J LeMahieu?

And that includes Aaron Nola.

Most of Mainieri’s recruits weren’t big enough to get in the MLB
He loved the 5’4” 145lbs players

Gausman has done fairly well both on the field and in the pocketbook

His career awards and achievements are phenomenal.
He has 4 gold gloves. multiple all star and mlb first teams. Batting champion twice. Defensive player of the year 3 times. 2 time silver slugger.

There aren't many more successful players from anybody's college teams anywhere that have had the career LeMahieu has.
Bregman and Nola may end up better when it's all said and done though.

$80M in career earnings. Currently making $15M/yr for the Yankees.
3x All Star
4x Gold Glove
2x MLB Batting Champion
Pretty good for a 2nd round pick

Bregman
Has already made just about as much $ as Lemahieu has during his career - Bregman getting $28.5M from the Astros this year.
Has won 2 World Series & 2x All Star, but not quite as many awards as Lemahieu.

Yea that's fine. 2x world champion, 2nd in MVP voting and has accumulated more WAR than DJ in 5 fewer seasons.
Not trying to take anything away from DJ he's had an outstanding career and a great dude but Bregman is the better big leaguer.

His stats at the at the plate have dipped since 2019 and he was only 25. Makes you wonder.

Well I guess that is why he was the 2nd overall pick in the draft. Lemahieu was 79th
I’d still say Lemahieu has had the more impressive/successful career

Lemahieu two batting titles
Gausman and Nola have been close to winning Cy Young
Bregman has world series and all star appearances

DJ was clutch at lsu. Bregman wasn’t. Only stat that matters.

Bregman has been way more successful at the same point in each’s careers.
Posted on 2/1/24 at 12:11 pm to TheShmoo
Bregman has the better resume than lemahieu at this point in their careers. DJ has more individual awards
Posted on 2/1/24 at 12:11 pm to TheShmoo
Bregman and Nola are on potential Hall of Fame paths. DJ is great but he's not like them. Gausman has an argument too
Posted on 2/1/24 at 12:16 pm to JimTiger72
Just ruffling feathers. They are both great players and great ambassadors
