This a bit premature.
Just hope he's stays hot through the post season.

If he stays hot, on this big of a stage, it would be a fine start. JMO

Early but if he continues to perform with his confidence it will be a giant step in that direction.

I love what he's doing but I'm going to side with the large regular season sample size of mediocre play that he have over his recent postseason hot streak.

I'm rooting for Eric Hosmer to do well, but I don't think he's quite become a star yet. At age 24, he still has some work to do to get more production from his opportunities. Here are the 10 "most similar" players through age 24 to Eric Hosmer, according to Baseball Reference. Some of these guys went on to (or had already by age 24) achieved one or more All-Star games appearances. Hosmer could be an All-Star if he can become more consistently productive at the plate.
http://www.baseball-reference.com/pl...osmeer01.shtml Keith Hernandez (954) Tony Horton (949) Elbie Fletcher (942) Vic Saier (941) Phil Cavarretta (935) Billy Butler (933) Carlos May (932) Fred Merkle (932) Jeff Francoeur (928) Jason Thompson (927) Last edited by DanT; 10-04-2014 at 09:54 AM.. |

He goes in binges at the plate. Needs a bit more consistency. Currently on hellfire with the bat.

He's certainly delivered at an opportune time but I think that's it. It'd be nice if he turned into a beast next season.

He's having a fantastic post-season, but star? Absolutely not. He was dog-shit for most of this season and still hasn't put up remarkable numbers during any regular season.

You're an idiot. Isn't this the same guy that had the most hits in MLB the second half of last season? He's a second half player, and he was hurt during the second half this year. I'm betting next year that he hits .315 20HR and 90RBI.
