Under the Radar Star

Who is the NL outfielder who is completing his 5th year in the majors and has totalled more than 150 homers and 500 rbi, plays for a division leading team, and this week joined the 30/30 club?  The answer is Ryan Braun of Milwaukee.  A classic great player in a small market who gets no pub.  His career avg is .311 to go with a .561 slugging avg and .931 ops.  With very similar career at-bats, he actually has slightly superior career numbers to Josh Hamilton.  I look forward to seeing him in the playoffs.

I love Braun. Fielder came out this week in an unprovoked interview saying he expected to leave the Brewers in free agency.

He has already rejected the same offer Braun accepted.
