Current season stats notwithstanding, whom would you rather have from this point forward?
Josh Hamilton or Alfonso Soriano?

Hamilton. I like my elevators going up rather than down. The Rangers lineup is better than commonly believed, and could even get a little bump with Blalock returning. I think they can protect him.
Also, I just like the story from a human interest angle and will use that as a factor if close. Fonzi is going to get more SBs, fine, but he’ll be 50 RBIs off The Natural’s pace. That’s pretty proximate.
I’m still leanin’ towards Soriano. Hamilton seems to have a big edge in RBIs and a slight edge in AVG, but I could easily see Soriano leading him in runs, HR and SB. Might just depend on need who ya take.

this is by far the easiest one. alfonso’s body is tissue paper. give me hamilton in a second.
Hamilton has a 90% Contact rate!! Waits till it heats up in Texas. Josh for sure. I hate Soriano.

Hamilton
Steve – That’s a good point with these two – specific team need may decide it. For me tho, I’ll go with Hamilton as well.
