On another note, I'm gonna give myself a pat on the back. The Wilkin Ramirez comp is almost spot on. Go back three years, and Corey Hart was a converted infielder learning and improving in the outfield with contact issues, solid power, and a 20-30 SB type speed.
Most talk out of Milwaukee has Prince Fielder becoming the trade bait for pitching and Gamel moving to first.
