What's your current plan and ETA for these guys?

I realize as a site we're on an OBP kick, but who's better today in this moment in time is not necessarily the same as who will be better in 2010 or 2011.

 

I wasn't asking you about Cain vs Gillespie, I was asking you about Braun vs Gross. You have a huge a ceiling guy vs a solid/steady yet unspectacular player. I think the team needs both kind of players, but Gillespie doesn't scream starter to me anymore than Gross did. Gillespie could be a great bench player, in that I have no doubt. Again I'm not going out on a limb on Cain until after next year, but I feel good about him, and I also think that Gillespie will have a nice career as well.

In the case of Braun vs. Gross, I take Braun. Different situation entirely, though.
