You have high expectations. I thought he was supposed to be a terrible fielder? Olerud and Grace were magnificent with the glove. They're both borderline hall of famers at the least.
Kevin Youkilis is a fine player.

At the least.
Olerud is better anyway. But I'd personally put them both in, after I removed about 3 or 4 dozen players.

Nice post count. 13337.
I like Daric Barton a lot, but where is the power going to come from? I don't think it's really a matter of getting stronger with him--his swing is just not built for homers. He'll hit a lot of doubles, though. Maybe a rich-man peak Lyle Overbay/Kevin Youkilis hybrid?
