Do you feel that Young from the Rangers is the best overall player in baseball right now?

I have heard many great things about this man. The Devil Rays (no jokes about the Devil Rays sucking please- I know they suck but I still am a fan) commentators state that he is underrated and could be the best pure hitter in baseball right now. From what I have seen when the Rangers come to town I agree. He has a great eye. he can hit for contact and power. He has a textbook swing. Even the commentators mentioned to all of the kids out there learning baseball that Young's swing is the way to go. Ichiro is probably the best contact hitter I have ever seen (George Brett, Wade Boggs, and Tony Gwynn are certainly up there) but his swing is unorthodox. Probably wouldn't make the best hitting coach. Haha. Oh yeah, Pujols is great but I am not a big fan of his style of hitting. But I don't question his consistency and power. Certainly deserves national league MVP.

While Michael Young is a good hitter and above-average player, there are at least 20 hitters better than him. Without making a big list, let's compare him to just a couple of other guys - I'll look at runs, average, on-base, and slugging, since they're some of the more telling stats:

Young 53 .311 .354 .442
Beltran 72 .277 .384 .610
Pujols 69 .328 .442 .715

Now, which of those players would you rather have 9 or in your lineup - the guy who has a pretty swing like Young, or a guy like Pujols who somehow manages to get by pretty nicely with what his swing? Of if you want nice swings, then why wouldn't Beltran be the better choice? He has a great stroke, and he's much more productive than Young.

One problem with Young is that his eye just isn't as good as some of the league's premier hitters. He's never cracked the 60-walk mark, and he just doesn't get on base as much as you'd like from an elite player.

Being a great hitter has little to do with the beauty of your stroke. Having good form helps, but the great hitters have their own styles and do what works for them. It's annoying to see so much acclaim given to guys like Young, guys who pile up the hits but don't know how to draw a walk.

Don't get me wrong - Young is a good hitter. But to say that he's the best "pure hitter" makes no sense. A "pure hitter" is a guy who does more than just make contact with a pretty swing - that's what makes guys like Beltran, ARod, or Pujols the elite, while Young is on the second tier.
