Dave Krynzel
Will Dave Krynzel be any good?

There is no question about his defensive ability...He's all ready there as far as Major League center fielder's go defensively...But what about his ability to hit?

Personally I am worried about him. He strikes out a ton, hasn't really drawn any big walk totals, has no power and isn't all that great of a base stealer (at least percentage wise he is not).

His career minor league totals...

1879 At Bats
526 Hits
28 Homeruns
489 Strike outs
203 Walks
149 Stolen Bases
77 Caught Stealing

.280 Average
.350 OBP (Approximately)
65.9 SB%

(I added up all these statistics myself and since the numbers I used weren't complete with HBP and all sacrifices, the OBP is approximate)

With such high strike out totals and low walk totals, I am very concerned that Krynzel will not pan out in the big leagues. I understand that he is only 23 years old, but even if he's a Gold Glove caliber CF, what good is it if he's hitting .250 with an OPS of 740?

I'm very skeptical of Krynzel becoming a quality everyday starting CF, and believe me, I hope that I am wrong. But due to his lack of power, average SB ability and poor K/BB ratio in the minors, I have a feeling that Krynzel is destined to a career as a forth or fifth outfielder in the big leagues. What does everybody else think about Krynzel? Will he be a good leadoff hitter for the Brewers, or just another backup quality OF? LET YOUR VOICE BE HEARD!!!
