Frustration for me. We all know KB is better than this, especially that piss-poor final swing. He's getting into his own head. He's a little amped up, but I expect a lot of at-bats like this from him. This is what guys who whiff of 33% of their AAA swings look like against good MLB pitching. He's still going to put 25+ mistakes over the wall this year.
Well, for comparison, Prior topped out at No. 2 on Baseball America's lists. Putting aside "screw pitchers," I'd consider them pretty comparable as prospects, but if you are making me pick one, I'd pick Bryant. With "screw pitchers" in the mix, Bryant easily.
