I know most of Milwaukee's feelings on Braun's potential, but I'd like to maybe hear what the other markets think Ryan Braun's game is starting and/or could emulate.

Special, special hitter. The type that can go down in history. He has tremendous power to all fields, has a great approach at the plate, doesn't seem to have any bad habits at the plate, and is obviously a gifted athlete. It isn't often that this type of hitter comes around, which is why sometimes people are hesitant to say that he can be so great. If in 30 years from now, Braun is in the hall of fame, there is no reason for anybody to be surprised...he IS that good and COULD become that great.

Word to that. He's basically flawless as far as I can tell.

Just remembering that he was the fastest to 15 HR's for like 6-7 years or something, I will have to look it up on the stats for sure. This guy is on fire! The guy seems to be exactly what baseball in general needs... a good solid bat.

Defense. Though he has a plus arm and I'm sure with his approach to the game in general, he'll not only become adequate but most likely very good defensively.

Pfft he's not the Kosher Krusher. He's the Hebrew Hammer.

So is he going to Temple with Shawn Green on Yom Kippur?

Yeah, and Kevin Youkilis tags along. They call it the "Torah Trio."
