Dude compares the rookie years of Buster and Mays. Pretty surprising, actually.

What I take away

is that Buster will be a HOF centerfielder.

Also

with the similarity of hits and OBP but difference in PAs (he incorrectly says ABs), Willie must have walked at a considerably higher rate than Buster.

10.9% vs. 6.8%

Posey’s minor league numbers would suggest there is room for improvement though.

Don’t be surprised if Posey gets the majority of his career games played as a corner outfielder.

"Because I don’t know what it means anymore, in the PCL. It’s almost like years ago."
"That’s not to say Buster isn’t fully committed or all-in. He is. He’s smart and he’s got the advance reports. Anybody who said he’s not ready to catch in the big leagues is crazy because he’s a pretty good catcher, especially throwing." - Sabean 7/11/10
