I think Maybin will be the much better player. Not even similar, but better. Barring injury, of course.

I think Maybin is better now but I think Upton has the highest ceiling of the two. However, Upton needs to produce for more than a few weeks to prove it. mahalo

Not if there like you and have nothing to say about the topic.

Justin Upton is the best prospect in baseball.

I would choose Upton out of these 2 players. Is Alex Gordon still considered the #1 prospect even though he had a terrible start to the year?

Obvy not.

Upton will be the unanimous top prospect in baseball when everyone makes their lists at the end of the year.

Unanimous? Hardly. Maybin's been playing just as well as Upton has in high class A so far. Better speed numbers, too.

It'll be a split between Maybin and Upton with a few errant Jay Bruce votes.
