I know you are a Cubs homer and all... but really? Don't get me wrong, I got ARam in the 4th round last year and he was quite the steal, but it kinda seems like his stats have leveled out and he's still not quite a 1st rounder... do you see him taking an even bigger jump this season? Or the fact that he can consistently put up good stats being the thing that gets people to feel he's as safe of a 1st rounder as there gets?

Well last year he was out for a decent amount of time. But for a while he was in MVP discussions. I have been calling him for NL MVP this year. I just think hes about to break out big time. He doesnt strikeout, he hits for power, average, decent obp. 1st Round is saying a lot especially at 3b when you have Arod, Wright, Cabrera, but just a gut feeling

I like ARam, but to say he is a 1st round pick is a pretty big reach.
