Now im sure when people read this theyll call me an idiot for comparing Ellsbury to a double A prospect . I will admit i am a Borbon fan and feel he has been slightly underrated , partly because  getting lost in the shuffle due to the jacked system the Rangers have. I was looking for a comp to Borbon longterm, ive heard Johnny Damon before but obviously with his age now i was tryin to look for someone a little younger for the post. If you look at Ellsbury and Borbon at the age of 22 their stats are eerily similiar . Both started in High A and moved to Double A. Both hit over 300, Both hit 7 Hrs and both had 40 plus steals(Borbon 50 plus).

Ellsbury

22 yr between high A and double A

442 ab, .303/384 7 hr 51 rbis 64 runs 41 sb(17 cs) slg .425 ops .810 strikeouts 53

Borbon

22yr old between high A and double A

541 ab, .322/ 363 7 hr, 58 rbis, 86 runs, 53 sb(18 cs) slg 427 ops 790 strikeouts 62

I think you can see why i made the comparison , so the question is, in 5 yrs time who will be the better player Julio Bobon or Jacoby Ellsbury.

Close call to me but i go Borbon in the upset, what about you?
