Brian (Brooklyn): Name one guy still in the minors who could be an MVP within the next 5 years. Longoria?

SportsNation Keith Law: Maybin would be the top choice. Other names: Adam Jones, Fernando Martinez (struggling this year), Jose Tabata (if his power develops as I expect).

Doug (NY): So you're not worried about Tabata's power outage? There's nothing to the wrist thing?

SportsNation Keith Law: Definitely concerned about it. But at least he's hitting for average, working the count, etc. Martinez isn't doing any of that.

Keith Law said that, who is a notorious Yankee hater.

The kid has insane talent. Hopefully the power develops soon, because he will hit for average.

I will drool watching Yankees games. But to realistically think anyone will be an MVP by the age of 22, 23 is a little whack

I think Law took the question as winning an MVP in their first 5 seasons, none of those guys will even be in the majors until 2009 (other than Jones, who doesn't have an MVP future IMO).

Joba Chamberlain's 14-month old son is named Karter. He's doing the K names just like Clemens...

And Tabata's OBP is over .380 now, pretty incredible for an 18 year old in high A.
