    Is Starlin Castro a top 3 short stop in the MLB?

    Simple question.

    I vote no.

    To those that do not know mathematics it is difficult to get across a feeling as to the beauty, the deepest beauty of baseball. If you want to learn about baseball, to appreciate baseball, it is necessary to understand the language she speaks.

    So this is just a Yes/No question with no list of who the 3 are and why?

    That's simple then.

    Yes.

    to me, and im a Cubs fan WOO, but anyways, to me he is on the fence of top 3. Simply because of his errors

    no absolutely not. he doesn't have the plate discipline or enough pop at this point in time.

    Not enough pop in his bat? He hit 10 homers last year, and will hit around 15 this year. That's good enough for a SS.

    I don' think he's top 10 but it has everything to do with his low OBP, not how much pop is in his bat.

    Not yet. Only 22, he'll hold his spot down for a long time soon enough.

    ^ Not top ten? Didn't make a list so you could be right but i think that's a little low.

    Definitely not top 3, but has the potential to be there. I don't know if he will put it all together though.

    Probably not.

    Tulo belongs in his own category. I think Elvis is a little better now, but in their primes, I think Starlin will surpass because of his offensive upside. I'd probably also take Reyes and Asdrubal over him as well. So maybe 5th?
