I'm a big fan of Cabrera, but how is he "better than Pujols at a younger age?" Cabrera's highest season OPS (this year) is a few points lower than Pujols' worst season (2002). Cabrera is 22 now, and Pujols was 22 in 2002. I'd call Pujols the better fielder, too. He was better at third than Cabrera, and he actually played short in a game in 2002. There's no question that Cabrera is a better value than Pujols. Pujols is the second-best 1B in baseball this year and makes $11 million. Cabrera is the second-best LF in baseball this year (behind Jason Bay) and makes $370,000. I'd be glad to have them both, of course. :wink: Park Factors. Cabrera on the road this year: 1.016 OPS Which is still well below what Pujols does on a regular basis. If you use stats like Win Shares and VORP, Cabrera isn't on the same level as Pujols this year, and wasn't even on the same planet last year. Compare Cabrera's season at age 22 with Pujols season at age 22, much fairer and much closer. But do we know for sure what season Pujols was really 22 in? Or if he ever was 22 in a major league season? :D
