Carlos Correa - Future Star?

RyX2 · 06-17-2013, 02:10 PM

Anyone notice the year over year BA/OBP increases for Correa?

Through 2012, playing in two rookie leagues, Correa hit only .258 with 3 HR’s, 28 runs, and 12 RBI’s in 190 AB's.

In 2013, through 214 AB’s, he’s hitting .304 with 4 HR’s, 41 runs, and 44 RBI’s. The spike in his BA year over year is really impressive – not to mention his OPS rising from .705 to .830.

I think his Chrome prices have come down enough to justify buying. What are you thinking?

I'd buy all chrome base and autos IMO

He's got big time talent, and is very young. Definitely in the A-Rod mold as a young player. He may not make it to the bigs until he is 21-22 years old because he is so raw. So, there is a lot of time to stockpile his chromes and i'm sure there are plenty of people doing so. I definitely think he is a solid buy.

Picked up a few in the past few days...refractors under $80 are a great price.
