I wonder how Grady will react when his time for the REALLY big payday comes. I get the feeling he’s not going to sign up with Boras and look for A-Rod money. But will continued monstrous success will change him?

If you need me, I'll be senselessly rooting for Sizemore 40/40 for the remainder of 2008.

Slightly OT: Nice to see Jimmy “The Toy Cannon” Wynn and Cesar Cedeño on this list. Both of the these players put in many years with bad Astro teams in a dome that was a horrendous place to produce good non-adjusted offensive stats.

Fred Lynn is kind of a scary comp because of the injuries. Still, because he has no historyof injuries, I like Grady’s chances to produce at the highest level for years and years to come.

Cedeno is one of my all-time favorites. Leo Durocher, of course, said CC was one of the three best players he had seen (Willie Mays and Pete Reiser were the others).
