Watch out for Melky Cabrera in the next couple of years. He's not a power hitter like Howard, but he's got a good eye. He's alot like a Bernie Williams type hitter, some pop, but more line drive. He's got a good arm and it's accurate. The Yankees didn't want him to get called up this year, but with Matsui and Sheffield gone, they had no choice.

I agree Andre Ethier and Matt Kemp from the Dodgers are really good players and I like the way Francoeur and McCann play from Atlanta.

I'd be interested to see who everyone thinks would be the next HUGE thing in Baseball. It'd be hard not to vote for Pujols though. He's pretty much there already.

He is a very good fielder and has a very good arm. He takes a lot of walks becuase he has a very good eye. He hits well and has gotten some key hits for the Yankees this year.

You can't forget some of the young pitchers too like Scott Kazmir, Francisco Liriano, Jerad Weaver, Jonathon Papelbon, and Chien-Ming Wang.

That's a long ways away. Unforseens are too many, but there are a few with the potential if they stay healthy, don't beat up there wives,etc.

One hitter I think was forgot. Prince Fielder. Stocks not so great this year, but I think he will explode over the next couple of seasons.
